Cranfield University is recruiting two Post-Doctoral Research Fellows to join cutting-edge research in environmental sensors and wastewater sensing. The positions focus on developing next-generation biosensors and microfluidic technologies to address critical environmental and public health challenges, including wastewater surveillance, detection of pathogens, and antimicrobial resistance. Successful candidates will work in a highly collaborative research environment alongside leading academic and international partners at the Cranfield Campus in the UK.

The research group, led by Professor Zhugen Yang, is recognized for its innovative work in environmental sensing and applied sensor technologies. The roles are ideal for candidates passionate about environmental monitoring, biosensors, and the application of sensor technologies to real-world public health issues. Applicants should hold a PhD (or be near completion) in a relevant field and demonstrate expertise in environmental sensing, wastewater monitoring, biosensors, or microfluidics.

While specific funding details are not provided in the announcement, Cranfield University is known for its strong research support and collaborative opportunities. The closing date for applications is 3 February 2026.
