About this position
Postdoctoral position in Developmental Neuroscience and metabolism at the University of Cambridge, Department of Zoology, in collaboration with Marco Sciacovelli at the University of Liverpool.
The project asks how metabolism instructs nervous system development during the critical period plasticity window in Drosophila. This is a cross-disciplinary opportunity combining wet-lab experimental work with some bioinformatics and omics data science.
The post is funded by the BBSRC and offers a salary of £37,694-£46,049 per year at Grade 7. Funding is available for up to 3 years, with a preferred start date between November 2026 and January 2027.
Applicants should be interested in neuroscience and metabolism, comfortable with wet-lab research, and willing to engage with computational analysis of omics data. The group highlights creativity, interdisciplinarity, curiosity, collaboration, and inclusiveness.
