[UK] Postdoctoral Scientist at MRC National Institute for Medical Research

Posted:

Postdoctoral Scientist at MRC National Institute for Medical Research

Overview
Division of Developmental Neurobiology
We are recruiting for a 3-year Postdoctoral position within the National Institute for Medical Research. Our laboratory studies molecular and cellular mechanisms regulating development and maintenance of midbrain dopaminergic neurons. Research topics include deciphering gene regulatory networks involved in the specification and differentiation of these neurons. These projects utilize combinations of neuroanatomy, cell biology, genetically engineered mouse models, genomic high-throughput techniques and in vitro culture systems including brain slice cultures. We are seeking innovative and highly motivated researchers with a PhD in Life Sciences, preferably in developmental biology or neurobiology. Experience with molecular biology is essential.

Overview
  • Department: Computer Architecture and VLSI Systems Laboratory
  • Location: Heraklion, Crete, Greece
  • Salary: 40,000 - 50,000 Euros, commensurate with qualifications
  • Original Posting Web Page: http://www.ics.forth.gr/announcements.html
  • Keywords: exascale computing, parallel programming models, runtime systems for parallel programming
The CARV laboratory of the Institute of Computer Science at the Foundation for Research and Technology – Hellas, is seeking applicants for postdoctoral positions to work on programming models, runtime support, and adaptation of scientific applications for Exascale computing systems. Having surpassed the Petaflop barrier, supercomputers are reaching for the Exaflop target, using millions of processor cores.


[UK] Postdoctoral Research Associate in Soil Carbon Dynamics at University of Central Lancashire

Postdoctoral Research Associate in Soil Carbon Dynamics at University of Central Lancashire

Overview
The Environmental Sciences Division (ESD), www.esd.ornl.gov, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), www.ornl.gov, has an immediate opening for a post doctoral research associate in soil carbon dynamics.

The post-doc will have the opportunity to design, execute, and analyze bench and field-scale experiments to better understand mechanisms controlling soil organic matter protection and stabilization. The successful candidate should have a demonstrated background and interest in plant root inputs to soil organic matter (SOM) pools, soil aggregate dynamics, and physio-chemical mechanisms that regulate carbon accrual in SOM fractions that range in chemistry and residence time. Process-level knowledge gained in these investigations will be incorporated into carbon models at local to global scales.
