EDGE is a Marie Sklodowska-Curie COFUND Action, led by Trinity College Dublin on behalf of 10 Irish academic institutions of excellence. EDGE awards fellowships to high-calibre post-doctoral researchers, who will relocate to Ireland to join expert supervisors in in the ICT (networks, date and materials) field. In our 2nd call we may award up to 45 Fellowships, each 24-months duration.
RESPIRE 3 is an international, inter-sectoral, and inter-disciplinary programme, providing Marie Skłodowska-Curie post-doctoral research fellowships to early stage scientists with the potential to become the leaders of tomorrow in the respiratory field. It is co-funded by the European Union (EU), and builds on the success of the previous RESPIRE1 and RESPIRE2 programmes.
Do not miss this unique opportunity to become a Marie Sklodowska-Curie fellow! Apply for the second call of RESPIRE 3 and join the six fellows selected through the first RESPIRE3 round
Post-doctoral position offer
1 year funded position with possibility of extension (+1 to 2 years) - From 01/01/2018
Research topic: Epigenetic and cellular signaling
Key words: Post-translational modification, Lysine methylation, lysine methyltransferases, cell signaling, epigenetics, lung cancer.
Profile
The position is available in the recently established research group of Dr. Gaetano Gargiulo at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine (MDC, Berlin, D) and is funded by the European Research Council (ERC). We seek to recruit an ambitious and self-motivated scientist with interest in molecular mechanisms of cancer.
Applications are invited for a pan-European academic/private sector research training network in the fields of diagnostic and therapy development for brain disorders.
The InnoDC (Innovative tools for offshore wind and DC grids) network is expecting to receive funds from the European Commission’s Marie-Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme to offer training through research to 15 talented early-career power systems researchers. This is a unique opportunity to study for a PhD degree in a network of wind power and power systems experts from academia and industry. We are therefore looking for high calibre candidates with the skills, background knowledge and enthusiasm to help the network make important research breakthroughs.
The appointed researchers can be of any nationality and must have the necessary academic skills and background (electrical engineering, power systems) to make a success of a doctoral degree.
On the date they start work (likely to be January – March 2018), researchers must not have lived in the country of the host organisation (see below) for more than 12 of the previous 36 months, must have less than four years’ full-time equivalent research experience and must not have a doctoral degree;
Researchers will be employed by the host organisation for 36 months.
The network offers the appointed researchers generous salaries and funding for technical and personal skills training and participation in international research events.
All researchers will participate in international secondments to other organisations in the InnoDC network and in outreach activities with audiences beyond the research community.
Vacancies will be advertised in the coming months. If you are interested in applying for a position in the InnoDC network, please contact the relevant supervisor as indicated below.
ICUB - The Research Institute of the University of Bucharest is a newly-established research institute, a research division of the University of Bucharest. Its mission is to promote excellence in research and to encourage international collaborations. ICUB is organized in four divisions: Earth, Environmental and Life Sciences; Exact Sciences ; Humanities; Social Sciences.
We are currently setting up a new research group at the University of Sussex in Brighton, UK. Our focus will be on experimental quantum mechanics, in particular, cold and ultra-cold atomic gases.
Part of our work will be related to quantum technologies and we will build new sensors to measure the magnetic field of the brain. We also have pioneered the use of 3D printing in creating atom traps, something we are very excited about developing in the future.
