An opportunity has arisen to recruit up to two new staff members to the Oxford Animal Flight Group, following the extension of an ERC Grant to Dr Graham Taylor. The new posts are fixed term of a short-term nature, ending 31 May 2014, and will suit candidates who are interested in analyzing data collected already on a mature project with the sole aim of maximizing the productivity of the grant through publications. One of the posts will be assigned to analyzing an existing but unpublished dataset on the kinematics of a perching eagle, obtained using high-speed multi-station photogrammetry. The other post will be assigned to analyzing an existing but unpublished dataset on the kinematics of the blowfly flight motor, obtained using time-resolved x-ray microtomography on a synchrotron beamline. Both posts will be based in Oxford.
The main responsibilities of each post will be to analyse the respective dataset and to prepare and submit a scientific publication arising from this before the end of the post. Other duties will include presenting the research at an international conference and providing advice to PhD students in the animal flight group. Experience of analyzing the locomotor kinematics of animals is essential for each post, as are excellent programming skills in MATLAB, an excellent publication record commensurate with stage of career and excellent scientific presentation skills. A PhD in a relevant subject is also required.
This post will be based in the Department of Zoology, South Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PS.
Only applications made online (www.ox.ac.uk) before midday on 15 July 2013 will be considered. You will be asked to upload a CV and supporting statement.
