We are seeking a full-time postdoctoral researcher to join the lab of Professor Harrison Steel at the Department of Engineering Science in central Oxford. The post is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and is fixed-term for up to eighteen months. The research project will focus on the intersection of robotics, automation, and biotechnology, with an interdisciplinary team working to build this new paradigm of environmentally-friendly and functional living materials, which can be used in diverse application domains. The project team includes leaders in biotechnology, design, and engineering across Northumbria, Oxford, and Imperial, as well as start-ups and SME collaborators who are already bringing novel materials to market.
Applicants should hold a PhD, or be near completion of a PhD, in fields relating to biotechnology, engineering, and/or automation/manufacturing.
