Peter J. Braam Early Career Research Fellowship in Global Wellbeing 2024

Biological and Medical Sciences

Salary £37,099 p.a. plus allowances.

Merton College proposes to appoint a three-year, fixed-term early career researcher to the Peter J. Braam Early Career Research Fellowship in Global Wellbeing starting from October 2024 to January 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter. The post is available to a researcher at the early career stage and is intended to provide opportunity for the successful applicant to establish a research profile and to help prepare the postholder for an academic career.

The Peter J. Braam Early Career Researcher is expected to undertake a high-quality programme of original research in collaboration with other researchers, in a department within the University of Oxford. The College will consider applications from those working in the biological and medical sciences who have an interest in infectious disease, biodiversity and food security, as long as a genuine case is made as to how the proposed research contributes specifically to the advancement of Global Wellbeing.

Candidates should hold a recently completed doctorate or be close to completion of a doctorate and will have submitted their thesis no later than 3 months before the start date.  Those who formally submitted their doctoral thesis for viva voce examination before 1 October 2022 are not eligible, unless they have had a career break or if there are other exceptional circumstances. Those whose doctorate interrupted their professional training, should have completed their professional training since 1 October 2022.

Candidates must also have research expertise in their chosen field commensurate with the candidate’s career as demonstrated by a recently completed (or close to being completed) doctoral thesis and published or forthcoming original research articles in refereed journals (as relevant to the candidate’s field), or evidence of such future achievement. Evidence of active participation in the successful dissemination of research findings and a coherent plan of research for the duration of the appointment, and which is expected to make a valuable contribution to the candidate’s field, are also required.

The duties and skills required are described in more detail in the Further Particulars which also contain details of eligibility criteria, how to apply and allowances associated with the Fellowships. The closing date for applications is 12.00 noon on Wednesday 1st May 2024.  Interviews are expected to be held on Monday 3rd June 2024. Your Applicant Information Form should be uploaded via this separate online form.

Applications are particularly welcome from women, candidates with a disability, and black and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic posts at the University of Oxford. All applicants will be judged on merit, according to the selection criteria.

Merton College is an equal opportunities employer.
