Department: Management, Specialist and Administration

Salary: £30,505 to £36,924

We are recruiting for a postdoctoral research associate to work on a new, experimentally-driven research project in synthetic inorganic chemistry, funded by the Leverhulme Trust.

The project aims to provide new strategies for achieving "precious metal-like" redox catalysis using main group elements, and is driven by both sustainability concerns and fundamental academic curiosity. Other recent studies in this area have typically focused on trying to directly mimic the elementary reaction steps used by precious metals, despite these being poorly matched to most main group elements' "natural" reactivity. Instead, this project aims to develop new elementary steps that can be used to form alternative, "main group-friendly" catalytic mechanisms, while retaining precious metal-like net outcomes. To do this, the successful applicant will design, synthesise, and investigate main group Lewis acids with redox-active scaffolds that will enable systematic, "umpolung" transformation of nucleophiles into electrophiles, as a direct alternative to traditional reductive elimination steps.

We are seeking an exceptional postdoctoral candidate with a strong track record of successful research in the field of molecular inorganic synthesis, who possesses good organisational and presentation skills, and who can be an effective organiser of their own research and administrative duties. The latter will include coordination of research with external project collaborators, and assistance in the broader management of the Scott research group (including co-supervision of undergraduate and postgraduate research students).

Applicants must hold a PhD (or equivalent qualification) in chemistry or a closely related subject, or be close to completion at the time of applying.

Experience and expertise in the synthesis and manipulation of air-sensitive compounds are essential. Experience in the field of "transition metal-like" main group chemistry is desirable, but not essential for applicants with good experience in other areas of molecular inorganic synthesis.

Experience with NMR spectroscopy is essential. Experience with other relevant characterisation techniques such as XRD, CV, and/or EPR is desirable, but is not essential for otherwise strong candidates.

The potential to publish work in high quality, peer-reviewed journals is essential, and may be demonstrated either by an applicant's prior publication record or by providing suitable recommendations from the applicant's previous research supervisor(s).

Interviews will be held week commencing Monday 19th May 2025.

This position is offered on a full-time basis with a duration of up to 24 months, and a suggested start date of August 1st 2025. It will be supervised by Dr Daniel Scott, who can be contacted if applicants require further information about the proposed research or would like to informally discuss any other aspect of their application (ds2630@bath.ac.uk). More general information about the Scott group can be found here: .

Applications are invited to join an international research consortium aiming to build a neuronal pacemaker.

Your role in the project will be to develop digital twins of neuronal circuits of the brainstem and train them on electrophysiological data to provide the correct adaptation of pulses delivered to the heart

You will work in close collaboration with a the team at Bath testing and validating the pacemaker device, project partners, external consultants, and clinicians.

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in computational neuroscience to build and train the digital twin of a neuronal pacemaker.  You will estimate the network parameters that will configure pacemaker adaptation to physiological feedback.  The digital twin model consists of Hodgkin-Huxley type neurons emulating the brainstem central pattern generators that control heart rate adaptation on a beat-to-beat basis.  The model will be trained on actual electrophysiological recordings and electrocardiograms to produce the correct timings of pulses delivered to the heart following changes in respiration patterns and oximeter readings.  The group has extensive experience in optimizing such models with data assimilation and has demonstrated the importance of adaptive beat-to-beat pacing for reversing cardiorespiratory disease.  You will work in close collaboration with the postdoc testing and validating the pacemaker device by configuring its central pattern generator with estimated parameters and assist with coding.  You will also collaborate with other team members, project partners, external consultants, and clinicians.

The post calls for a Physics/Computational/Engineering PhD or a closely allied discipline with a good understanding of dynamical systems and proficient at modelling them in C/C++ and Python.  Additional experience in inverse problems, AI, neural networks, GUI coding or bioengineering would be a bonus.    You will also have good organisational, time management skills, the ability to organise data for publication, and good communication skills to thrive within an interdisciplinary consortium.

The aim of the consortium is to provide much needed therapy for cardiorespiratory disease.  By restoring heart rate adaptation and natural heart rate variability, the project will make a significant contribution to extending patients’ lives and improving patients’ quality of life.

The post holder will be a Physics/Computational/Engineering (or closely allied discipline) trained PhD with a good understanding of dynamical systems and proficiency at modelling them in C/C++ and Python.

Additional experience in inverse problems, AI, neural networks, GUI coding or bioengineering would be a bonus as well as good organisational and communication skills.

This is a fixed term role with an expected duration of 3 years.

Department: Education & Â鶹´«Ã½

Salary: £38,249 to £45,413

Applications are invited for a research associate in Bioelectronics to design, integrate, test and validate a neuronal pacemaker circuit. This circuit emulates the central pattern generators of the brainstem to restore heart rate variability and beat-to-beat adaptation to respiration and oximeter sensors. The group has earlier demonstrated the benefits of this approach for reversing heart failure and will test the hypothesis in cardiac arrhythmias. You will work in close collaboration with a computational neuroscientist who will provide you with the optimal network parameters to produce the correct pacing adaptation. You will be supported by a technician who will address bioengineering and biocompatibility aspects as well as ISO13845 compliance for grade III implants. The overall aim of the consortium is to deliver a 3-lead neuronal cardiac pacing device that will be tested in chronic trials with clinical partners in Austria and Czechia.

The aim of the consortium is to provide much needed therapy for cardiorespiratory disease. By restoring heart rate adaptation and natural heart rate variability, the project will make a significant contribution to extending patients’ lives and improving patients’ quality of life.

The post will require a PhD in Bioelectronics/Electrical engineering (or a closely allied discipline) or exceptionally a Master with an excellent track record of project delivery. You will have experience in designing and integrating mixed analogue-digital circuits, test and validation, microcontroller and GUI programming, the ability to organise experimental data for publication, and good communication skills to interact with members of the consortium. Desirable skills include the knowledge of Labview and bluetooth wireless protocols, experience in delivering bioelectronic / bioengineered projects to successful completion. The position offers outstanding opportunities for the right applicant in terms of leadership development, multidisciplinary experience within scientific and medical teams and the opportunity to be participate in device translation within a subsequent startup. 

This is a fixed term role with an expected duration of 3 years.

The post holder will be encouraged and supported in pursuing career development opportunities.

We welcome applications from candidates who have:

• A PhD in Cognitive or Clinical Neuroscience, data science / machine learning or related discipline
• Extensive experience in neuroimaging data analysis ( e.g., structural morphometry using FreeSurfer and voxel-based methods, diffusion tensor imaging, resting state fMRI) 
• Experience and interest in conducting research in psychosis and cognition. 
• Experience with Python, Matlab, or R programming, advanced statistical skills and a commitment to research integrity & reproducibility (e.g., preregistration on OSF) 
• Expertise in working with infant brain imaging data
