Closing Date: 28 Aug 2025

Department: Management, Specialist and Administration

Salary: £26,707 to £30,378

We are seeking a highly motivated research assistant to join the NanoImmunology and Molecular Pharmaceutics group, led by Dr. Iris Da Luz Batalha, within the Department of Life Sciences. 

Specifically, the successful candidate will be working on a highly interdisciplinary project, funded by the Raymond Schinazi Award, in collaboration with Prof. David Tosh and Dr. Albert Bolhuis. The project aims to investigate how the metabolism of lung-relevant commensal bacteria influences the ability of the pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa to infect the lungs and how this process might involve the Major Histocompatibility Complex class I-related protein (MR1) and specific T cell populations.

Your role within this project will be as a principal researcher responsible for project deliverables, including:

• Generation and characterisation of stem cell-derived lung epithelial cells, encompassing both wild-type and MR1-overexpressing phenotypes
• Establishment of air-liquid interface (ALI) cultures using the generated lung epithelial cell lines, with and without Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection, for in vitro modelling of respiratory pathogenesis
• Study the impact (or lack thereof) of commensal bacterial metabolism on MR1 presentation in the context of Pseudomonas infection
• Measure the activation of the specific T cell populations as a response to the presence of commensal bacteria and determine whether this was influenced by the overexpression of MR1

Ultimately, the goal is to understand the complex interplay between commensal bacteria, pathogen infection, and the immune response mediated by MR1 and specific T cells, with the potential to develop new therapeutic strategies for persistent lung infections like those seen in cystic fibrosis.

In addition, the successful candidate will be assisting with lab management tasks, including (i) equipment maintenance; (ii) ordering, stocking, and keeping an up-to-date inventory of lab supplies; (iii) maintaining a clean and organised lab environment; and (iv) ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations.

Our ideal candidate will have:

• A postgraduate degree in a relevant subject, such as Biology, Biochemistry, Pharmacy, Pharmacology, Biomedical Sciences, or similar. 
• Lab experience in a relevant research field.
• Hands-on experience in mammalian cell culture, molecular biology techniques, flow cytometry, and bacterial culture. 
• Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written.
• Proven ability to excel at collaboration and teamwork, fostering productive relationships across multiple working groups and institutions.

Further information

Please note, this is a full time, fixed-term contract of 4 months.

For an informal discussion relating to the role, please contact Iris Da Luz Batalha, icdlb20@bath.ac.uk

Department: Education & Research

Salary: £38,784 to £46,049

We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher to study the design, fabrication and applications of novel optical fibres.

• The research is part of a 6-year EPSRC Research and Partnership Hub called MicroTex, where we are collaborating with researchers in physics, chemistry, engineering, robotics, AI, biology and clinical medicine at Edinburgh and Heriot Watt universities.
• The goal of the Hub is to accelerate the discovery of treatments for infections by "intra-target micro-dosing", where tiny amounts of candidate drugs are precisely delivered to suitable sites inside the body and their effects remotely monitored. This requires fibre-optic techniques for multiple functions such as navigating the delivery instrument, imaging the test site, and optically monitoring tissue response.
• Your role will be to conceive, design, make and test a new generation of optical fibres to perform these functions, using the state-of-the-art fibre fabrication facilities at Íøºì±¬ÁÏ. You will also build experimental optical devices using these fibres, working with our collaborator institutions throughout.
• It is an exciting opportunity to see fundamental research in the physics of optical fibres have a real impact on one of the biggest challenges in medicine.

The ideal candidate has

• A PhD in optics/photonics (or closely allied discipline) or equivalent professional experience;
• extensive practical experience in the fabrication of innovative optical fibres from fused silica glass, including the development of fabrication techniques;
• a sustained record of publishing optics/photonics research in high-quality peer-reviewed journals;
• a demonstrated ability to solve research problems on their own and as a team member;
• excellent oral, interpersonal and written communication skills in English.

Further information

This is a fixed-term role until 31 March 2028 in the first instance, with a possibility to extend the total duration to 4 years.

For any informal enquiries about the role please contact Prof Tim Birks (T.A.Birks@bath.ac.uk) or Dr Kristina Rusimova (K.R.Rusimova@bath.ac.uk). However, please ensure that all applications are submitted via the University website.

A lower grade offer may be made (Grade 6) with comparable reduction in responsibilities and amendment in job title to Research Assistant, if a suitable applicant cannot be found to fill the Grade 7 position. Applicants will need to be within six months of their course completion date and will be promoted to Research Associate once their PhD has been awarded.

This 18 month position is supported by the Íøºì±¬ÁÏ as part of the EPSRC-funded Programme Grant ‘SynHiSel’, a major effort linking membrane researchers at Íøºì±¬ÁÏ, Manchester, Newcastle, Imperial College, Queen Mary and Edinburgh Universities: www.synhisel.com.  

Chemical separations are critical to almost every aspect of our daily lives, from the energy we use to the medications we take. Separations consume 10-15% of the total energy used in the world, with novel membranes having the potential to make these separations 10x more energy efficient and save millions of tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions. 

However, commercial membranes do not possess the necessary selectivity to deliver these savings, and novel membrane materials are often non scalable nor sustainable.   In this 18-month post-doctoral position you will work on the manufacturing of monolayer nanoporous graphene membranes for liquid separations, with a particular focus on micropollutant removal. You will have a PhD in Chemical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Material Science or a closely related field. Practical experience in membrane fabrication using graphene or other 2D materials and testing of membranes for liquid separations are highly desirable. Expertise in mathematical modelling is a bonus point. You should also have expertise in advanced characterisation techniques. 

You will join a multidisciplinary group with expertise in materials, chemistry and process engineering, working with Prof.s John Chew and Davide Mattia and Dr Shiqi Huang, in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Íøºì±¬ÁÏ, UK: /campaigns/membranes-research-expertise/
