<div> <p></p><div>We have an exciting opportunity for a  <strong>Postdoctoral Research Scientist</strong> to join us, this opportunity has arisen from The Wellcome Trust grant entitled “Brain networks underlying sleep and circadian rhythm disruption (SCRD) in mental health” awarded to a team of investigators including Professors Jason Lerch and Vladyslav Vyazovskiy, and led by Professor Stuart Peirson. This post will be based at the Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroimaging, Oxford.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>In this proposal, we will explore the role of brain networks linking SCRD and mental illness. Neuroimaging studies have suggested a common neurobiological substrate for mental illness, clustering into overlapping brain networks defined by characteristic spatial and temporal properties. This framework proposes a triple network model of psychopathology, based upon interactions between the default-mode, salience, and central executive networks. We hypothesise that these networks underpin the bidirectional relationship between SCRD and mental illness. We propose that sleep and circadian rhythms play a key role in the regulation of networks - particularly the salience network. Moreover, we predict that the effects of mental illness on the salience network explains why SCRD is commonly observed in these conditions, in turn exacerbating their severity. This bidirectional model explains why interventions that improve SCRD help ameliorate the aberrant function of these networks and can improve clinical symptoms.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>To test this hypothesis, we will study the role of sleep and circadian rhythms in the regulation of functional networks using animal models. Mouse models have provided fundamental insights into the mechanisms of SCRD, enabling the contribution of specific neuronal circuits and genes to sleep/circadian behaviour. We aim to explore the interactions between SCRD and functional brain networks. Specifically, we hypothesise that the salience network is regulated by both the circadian clock and sleep. We predict that SCRD will impair the function of the salience network and that manipulations of the salience network will cause SCRD. To address this hypothesis, the postholder will undertake MRI and behavioural experiments in wildtype and transgenic mice.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>The post holder will be a member of the Preclinical Imaging Group led by Jason Lerch, and will be responsible for carrying out research as outlined in the project in a close collaboration with the groups of Professor Stuart Peirson and Professor Vladyslav Vyazovskiy.

<div> <p></p><div>We are looking for a highly-motivated researcher to join a multidisciplinary research team funded by National Heath Institute (NIH) to dissect the aetiology of Lew body dementias (LBD). These include Parkinson’s disease with dementia (PDD) and Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), which is the second most common progressive dementia, after Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and it affects millions of individuals around the world. Despite its impact, basic questions remain unanswered. Specifically, it is not clear if PDD and DLB are distinct diseases with different underlying mechanisms or if they are clinical syndromes on a single mechanistic spectrum. Furthermore, there are virtually no tools that enable clinicians to make an accurate diagnosis of LBD, which can only be confirmed at autopsy. The lack of validated biomarkers for LBD contributes to delayed diagnosis and misdiagnosis, and thus potentially exposes individuals affected by DLB to inappropriate medication use and results in the failure to treat DLB-specific manifestations. Thus, determining if the DLB and PDD are molecularly distinct is necessary for the identification of disease-specific therapeutic targets and biomarkers that will lead to effective treatments. We will employ digital pathology with artificial intelligence (AI) and genotyping in a large cohort of PDD and DLB brain (n~1000) to perform the first GWAS assessing the role of genetics in relation to quantitative PD neuropathology that may pinpoint to mechanistic targets</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>Applicants must hold a PhD/DPhil (or close to completion) in Neuroscience or relevant subject area. You will have experience in general molecular biology techniques (e.g. immunohistochemistry, microscopy, DNA/RNA extraction) and good knowledge of neurodegenerative diseases as well as neuroanatomy. The ability to design experiments, trouble-shoot technical problems, be meticulous in practical work and in record keeping is essential. You will be part of a team but are also expected to work independently.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>For informal enquiries, please contact Prof Laura Parkkinen ( <a rel="nofollow" href="http://">laura.parkkinen@ndcn.ox.ac.uk</a>).</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>Please see the below 'Job Description' for further details on the responsibilities and selection criteria, as well as further information about the university and how to apply.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div><strong>The post is full time for a fixed term until 30/04/25 in the first instance.</strong></div><br> <div> </div><br> <div><strong>Only applications received before 12.00 midday on Friday 29th November will be considered.</strong></div><br> <div> </div><br> <div><strong>Interviews will be held as soon as possible thereafter.</strong></div> </div>Receptionist

Closes: Dec. 4, 2024, noon; salary: Research Grade 6: £34,982 - £40,855
<div> <p></p><div>We are seeking a Research Assistant to join the Jarvis group at the Department of Biology to work on a new BBSRC project entitled “Resolving the structure and function of the plant chloroplast protein import machinery”.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>Chloroplasts in plants are built from thousands of different proteins. Most of these proteins are encoded by genes in the cell nucleus, and so are made outside of the organelle in the cellular matrix called the cytosol. Since chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane “envelope”, sophisticated machinery is needed to import these proteins into the organelle. This machinery has two parts, called TOC and TIC, each being composed of several subunits that cooperate to drive protein import.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>Our research group has a long track-record of studying chloroplast protein import mechanisms. In recent years, we uncovered how activity of the TOC translocon is regulated by a novel mechanism called CHLORAD; and we showed how such regulation is vital for diverse aspects of plant growth, including resilience to adverse environments and fruit ripening. However, while the regulation of protein import is well studied, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of the translocons is only rudimentary.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>This project aims to elucidate how the individual subunits are arranged within TOC machines, and how the translocons assemble with each other. Having such a detailed understanding of the translocons will help to finally resolve the chloroplast protein import mechanism. Moreover, greater understanding of chloroplast development and functions may offer applications in the future development of crops with improved photosynthetic performance, stress resilience, and yields.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>If appointed, you will independently manage your own research within guidelines provided by senior colleagues, including accurate record keeping, and will contribute to wider project planning. You will determine the most appropriate methodologies to test hypotheses and identify suitable alternatives if technical problems arise.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>You will possess a bachelor’s degree in a relevant discipline and sufficient specialist knowledge in the discipline to carry out the project work effectively. You will also have considerable relevant research experience in molecular biology and/or protein biochemistry. Experience of following and adapting protocols and selecting appropriate experimental methodologies is essential.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>Informal enquiries may be addressed to Professor Paul Jarvis (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://">paul.jarvis@biology.ox.ac.uk</a>)</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>The University of Oxford is committed to equality and valuing diversity.

<div> <p></p><div><strong>About the role</strong></div><br> <div>Earth Observation (EO) science, data and tools are increasingly critical to supporting policy and societal efforts to reverse the decline in global biodiversity and associated ecosystems. In partnership with other space agencies, ESA is central to this effort through provision of high-quality observation data that form an essential part of the evidence base regarding global change that underpins international, multilateral agreements and treaties including the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES). Nature Finance is emerging as a key theme addressing the vital need to encourage and support the flow of private and public capital to support actions to address biodiversity and ecosystem sustainability, protection and restoration. While initiatives such as the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosure (TNFD) work towards clear guidance on standards and metrics for use of data related to biodiversity commitments, there is still considerable uncertainty surrounding the suitability of data to address various tasks involving data access, standards, and accuracy, as well as potential untapped opportunities to leverage new and additional EO data.

They will: help bring together the network of collaborating end-users in the finance community to understand EO data and methodology needs; work with technical EO teams to develop metrics, tools and other EO solutions; support efforts to disseminate project findings through LEON project activities; and, co-author scientific publications on the project outputs. The successful candidate will have skills and experience linked both to geospatial analyses/EO data, and to mechanisms relevant to nature finance (e.g. biodiversity credits, footprinting, risk analysis). The candidate will have some experience working with actors outside of academia, ideally in industrial and/or finance sectors.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>The researcher will work evenly (exactly 50% FTE in each) across the Nature Positive Hub, and the Global Finance and Economy Group. The Oxford Nature Positive Hub is located in the Department of Biology, bringing together leading researchers from across the University of Oxford, with close collaborators from other organisations. We are united by a common theme: working towards understanding and quantifying the drivers of biodiversity loss, identifying opportunities for impact mitigation and nature gains, and investigating policy mechanisms and actions that might underpin pathways towards Nature Positive outcomes overall. The Global Finance and Economy Group (located in the School of Geography and the Environment) spans natural sciences, economics and finance and aims to increase understanding of the relationships between environmental change, the economy, the financial system, and people, and develop science, analytics, tools, evidence and solutions to secure a resilient, inclusive and sustainable future.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div><strong>How to apply</strong></div><br> <div>Where Covid-19 has resulted in substantial disruption to your work or research outputs, please explain this by providing an additional paragraph in your supporting statement.</div><br> <div> </div><br> <div>The University of Oxford is committed to equality and valuing diversity.
