Research within the Centre for Sport, Exercise and Life Sciences (CSELS), at Coventry University, reflects a broad range of sport, exercise and biological sciences to understand life from the molecular level through to the whole body. The Centre has considerable expertise, ranging from microbiology, cell biology, genomic and molecular biology, biochemistry, nutrition and food science, safety pharmacology, physiology, physical activity and sport performance.
As part of Coventry University’s Research Strategy 2021 it is increasing its investment in quality research ‘excellence with impact’. As a result the Centre is looking to appoint a range of staff working in the area of Bio-engineering and Bio-technology to drive this area of activity. Specifically in the area of ‘bio-leaching’ for which the Centre has significant experience.
The following vacancies are currently available:
Although the posts are advertised on a 36 month fixed term basis, options may be available to extend and make permanent, subject to satisfactory performance.
These roles will build on a team of researchers working in this area of research and will provide the opportunity to work with experts in microbiology and in electrochemistry, but also the opportunity to apply technological expertise to an applied setting. The highly innovative aspects of the role will suit applicants who wants to become a future leader in the field of bio-technology.
These role provides a unique opportunity to join one of the UK’s most forward thinking and successful modern Universities at a time of rapid expansion in our research capacity. The positions will be based in our new purpose-built research laboratories on the Coventry city campus.
