Centre for Human Genetics, Building for Genomic Medicine, Old Road Campus, Roosevelt Drive, Headington, Oxford, OX3 7BN This role will centre around cutting-edge light microscopy. Once in post, you will provide support to users of the Cellular Imaging Core Facility, training them in a range of microscopy techniques at the appropriate level for the user and their project requirements. The Cellular Imaging Core Facility takes a holistic approach to microscopy training and education, as such you will have the knowledge and experience to advise on sample preparation, imaging modalities and settings, data processing, as well as image analysis and data presentation. You will lead in the development of bespoke analysis pipelines and train users in the independent use of analysis platforms with a focus on ZEISS arivis Pro. In addition to overseeing the use of microscopes within the Core, you will carry out system performance tests and liaise proactively with service engineers and/or company representatives in case of malfunction or underperformance. You will support the day to day running and administration of the Core, generating training materials, assisting with the instrument booking system and facility finances (including user recharges). It is essential that you hold a PhD/DPhil (or close to completion) in biological sciences, biophysics, or any other suitable discipline relevant to the role, and have significant knowledge and experience of light microscopy (confocal, widefield, Airyscan, SIM etc). You will have experience in live cell imaging and be familiar with the principles underlying a diverse range of optical microscopy techniques. It is essential you have experience teaching fundamental principles of microscopy to a varied audience, and experience in image data analysis with commercial and open-source image analysis packages. This is an exciting opportunity with the potential to collaborate on projects across a wide range of biological research themes utilising some of the most advanced microscopy equipment in the University of Oxford.
