For more information, please visit www.ox.ac.uk/about/organisation. The Department of Biology You will be joining the Department of Biology at an exciting time. The Department established from August 2022 as a result of a merger between the Departments of Zoology and Plant Sciences, and is preparing to move into the new state-of-the-art Life and Mind Building in 2025. The Department of Biology is recognised internationally for its research in a wide range of fields spanning all levels from molecules to ecosystems, and tackling global challenges through fundamental bioscience research. Over time, the research interests of the Department has been focused on five primary themes: Behaviour & Biomechanics; Ecology & Conservation; Evolutionary Biology; Microbiology & Infectious Disease; and Molecular Plant Biology. Research is conducted in all spheres from laboratory and in silico analysis to theoretical and field-based research. At all times we seek to reinforce the connections between research and our education offering, at both graduate and undergraduate level. The Department teaches a four-year undergraduate degree MBiol course in Biology, with fourth-year students undertaking a Masters-level research project. It also supports a variety of graduate placements and hosts the University’s DPhil in Biology. External research income to the Department is derived from over 50 different funding agencies, with the principal current funders being the European Research Council, the Royal Society, the Wellcome Trust, BBSRC and NERC. The Department has a significant record in integrating broader societal impacts of its research, including the provision of policy to government at the highest level, as well as supporting the commercialisation of research through spin-out companies and licensing arrangements that have generated hundreds of millions of pounds’ worth of innovation. The Department is located in the University’s Science Area at two sites, and will move into the new £200m Life and Mind Building in 2025 that will include extensive laboratory provision with controlled environment rooms, glasshouses and an imaging suite. The Department also benefits from extensive facilities at the John Krebs Field Station at Wytham, with Wytham Woods nearby, as well as partnerships with organisations in the area such as the Oxford Botanic Gardens and Oxford Natural History Museum. For more information please visit: https://www.biology.ox.ac.uk The Ineos Oxford Institute The Ineos Oxford Institute (IOI) was created following a gift of £100 million pounds from INEOS to the University of Oxford. The Institute will rapidly advance research, education and collaboration in search of solutions to the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The IOI will become a centre of world-class scientific talent, working collaboratively with a growing number of bodies focusing on AMR and infection prevention control across the world. It will seek to stimulate innovation and collaboration within academia and with industry and government. Ultimately, it aims to become the world’s leading institution for the discovery of novel antibiotics and new approaches to combatting antimicrobial resistance. Scientists at the IOI apply state of the art medicinal chemistry and microbiology approaches to antibacterial drug discovery to enable and promote the development of breakthrough new treatments for human bacterial infections. Our science-focused approach is interdisciplinary and highly collaborative, both within Oxford and internationally. We also undertake international collaborative studies with global surveillance and assessment programmes to understand the impact of antibiotic resistance on low-middle income country health and agricultural structures. We aim to develop important actionable estimates of the AMR burden that will impact global and regional policy decisions. Addressing antimicrobial resistance requires a global effort. It will be critical to develop the pipeline of talent to undertake research and pursue scientific discovery in the field in the years to come. The IOI are committed to training a cohort of scientists in the fields of antimicrobial resistance and drug discovery. This will include on-going training of laboratory scientists, and a range of opportunities including a PhD initiative, short courses and seminar series. The Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences Division The Mathematical, Physical, and Life Sciences (MPLS) Division is one of the four academic divisions of the University. Oxford is widely recognised as one of the world's leading science universities. . The disciplines within the MPLS Division regularly appear at the highest levels in world rankings and have been evaluated as conducting world-leading and internationally excellent research in UK research assessments, and Mathematical, physical and life sciences research at Oxford is the best in the country according to the 2014 Research Excellence Framework (REF) assessment exercise carried out by HEFCE. The MPLS Division is home to the non-medical sciences at Oxford and its 10 departments and 3 interdisciplinary units span the full spectrum of the mathematical, computational, physical, engineering and life sciences, and undertake both fundamental research and cutting-edge applied work. Our research tackles major societal and technological challenges – whether developing new energy solutions or improved cancer treatments, understanding climate change processes, or helping to preserve biodiversity, and is increasingly focused on key interdisciplinary issues. We collaborate closely with colleagues in Oxford across the medical sciences, social sciences and humanities, and with other universities, research organisations and industrial partners across the globe in pursuit of innovative research geared to address critical and fundamental scientific questions. MPLS is proud to be the home of some of the most creative and innovative scientific thinkers and leaders working in academe. Our senior researchers have been awarded some of the most significant scientific honours (including Nobel prizes and prestigious titles such as FRS and FREng) and we have a strong tradition of attracting and nurturing the very best early career researchers who regularly secure prestigious fellowships. The Division is also the proud holder of ten Athena Swan Awards (5 Silver and 5 Bronze) illustrating our commitment to ensure good practice and to encourage women in science at all levels in the division. We have around 6,000 full and part-time students (including approximately 1900 graduate students) and play a major role in training the next generation of leading scientists. Oxford's international reputation for excellence in teaching is reflected in its position at the top of the major league tables and subject assessments. MPLS academics educate students of high academic merit and potential from all over the world. Through a mixture of lectures, practical work and the distinctive college tutorial system, students develop their ability to solve major mathematical, scientific and engineering problems. MPLS is dedicated to bringing the wonder and potential of science to the attention of audiences far beyond the world of academia. We have a strong commitment to supporting public engagement in science through initiatives including the Oxford Sparks portal (www.oxfordsparks.net) and a large variety of outreach activities; these are crucial activities given so many societal and technological issues demand an understanding of the science that underpins them. We also endeavour to bring the potential of our scientific efforts forward for practical and beneficial application to the real world and our desire is to link our best scientific minds with industry and public policy makers.
