As a Grade 7 Research Associate, you will have a PhD in a relevant discipline alongside evidence of contributing independently to experimental or translational research studies and high-quality peer-reviewed journal publications. You will have strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities, and excellent written and oral communication skills, with an ability to work both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary research team. You must also have the ability and willingness to learn, be able to synthesise evidence from various subject areas, and work closely with both academic and industry partners.
We particularly welcome applications from individuals with expertise in nutritional physiology and muscle metabolism, particularly in the context of ageing and weight management. Experience in human clinical trials involving nutritional interventions is highly desirable. Applicants should have experience in anthropometric and physiological assessments, including measures of body composition, muscle function, and morphology, and some proficiency in muscle and blood biochemistry techniques. Familiarity with stable isotope tracer methods to assess metabolic rates would be an advantage.
Please submit a CV including information of any research publications and a cover letter for review.
