1. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
The project involves working with 8 case study venues and a national survey of volunteer managers. You will carry out data gathering and analysis, this will include travelling to the case study venues & surrounding areas, which are located across England and Scotland, to carry out interviews with (ex-)volunteers and volunteer managers. You will also contribute to the project outputs and dissemination events, including: on-line discussion events with volunteer managers, production of a booklet of good practices in handling transitions out of volunteering, and, academic papers and conference presentations.
2. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
The entire project aims to develop, implement, and evaluate skin-friction drag reduction devices within our recently developed machine intelligence framework to enable new approaches to wall-turbulence control. This new form of intelligent fluid-flow control will be used to develop practical wall-turbulence control strategies that can rapidly and autonomously optimise the aerodynamic surface with minimal power input whilst being adaptive to changes in flow speed. This new capability will open up the opportunity to discover new ways to tame wall-turbulence and exploit the latest drag reduction mechanisms to generate significant levels of turbulent skin-friction drag reduction.
3. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
The project involves the theoretical, numerical and experimental demonstration of photonics and microwave structures to model graph primitives.

6. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
You will be responsible for the delivery of MRC-funded research on direct and indirect pathogenic properties of type I interferon (IFN-I) in the CNS, providing a framework for interpreting pathomechanism in neurodegenerative disease. This project explores the cellular drivers of IFN-mediated pathology using conditional in vivo expression of the pathogenic allele in individual cell types, allied with human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) models of the corresponding cell types in vitro. We will also assess novel IFN-I inhibitors developed in partnership with medicinal chemistry collaborators.
7. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
We invite applications for a postdoctoral research associate in stellar astrophysics to join the UKRI-funded SYMPHONY project managed by Dr Dominic Bowman at Newcastle University. The SYMPHONY project combines photometric and spectroscopic data to perform asteroseismic modelling of massive stars, in particular evolved massive stars called Blue Supergiants, to measure their masses, ages and interior rotation profiles: https://research.ncl.ac.uk/symphony/. The growing astrophysics group at Newcastle University has wider expertise in galaxy evolution, cosmology, compact objects and MHD simulations, in addition to stellar astrophysics, and are committed to building and maintaining a fair and inclusive working environment.
8. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
We are looking to recruit a bioinformatician to contribute to the analysis of on-going projects in the Amarnath and Rajan groups on skin cancer and inflammation. You will have opportunities to develop and apply cutting edge informatics and machine learning to analyse a variety of data sets including those arising from high-throughput sequencing namely single cell RNA sequencing from both 10x Genomics and Rhapsody single cell platforms. The role will include deciphering novel immune cell subsets and resistance markers within skin cancers from both experimental murine models and human tumours and cancers.
9. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
You are invited for a Research Assistant/Associate position in developing a robust, carbon-neutral & cost-effective process to treat sludge and to recover valuable materials and clean water from it. It is a prosperity partnership, collaborative research project with a manufacturing and process development company located in Carlisle. This EPSRC funded position will be based at Chemical and Civil Engineering within the School of Engineering at Newcastle University. You will carry out research and contribute conceptually to the overall research programme. You will work with the academic team at the School of Engineering, Newcastle University and the industry partner to design and develop sustainable sludge valorisation technology to achieve the goals of the project.
10. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
There is an exciting opportunity for a highly motivated and independent individual to join an EPSRC research project (TRUSTED: SecuriTy SummaRies for SecUre SofTwarE Development) as a Research Assistant or Associate. The focus of this position is to design and develop theories and tools with solid foundations for secure open-source software development. The developed solutions will protect against software supply chain attacks where the attacker compromises any steps in the software development process by deliberately incorporating vulnerabilities into the code to be triggered at a later stage of the software life cycle.
11. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
We are pleased to advertise two 3-year fixed-term Clinical Research Associate positions available for enthusiastic and highly motivated individuals from any clinical discipline, wishing to complete a PhD. The successful applicants will join the AGE Research Group at Newcastle University; an interdisciplinary team with a focus on improving lives through world-class research in ageing, sarcopenia, and multiple long-term conditions which is led by Professor Avan Aihie Sayer, Director of the NIHR Newcastle Biomedical Research Centre (BRC). The posts are funded by the NIHR Newcastle BRC, and the successful applicants will become members of the Ageing, Sarcopenia and Multimorbidity theme (ASM). This BRC theme builds on our internationally recognised research on ageing and involves working across academic disciplines and clinical specialties in partnership with patients and the public.

About Postdoctoral Position
Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) are found in all aspects of our lives – from small portable electronic devices through electric vehicles to grid-scale battery energy storage systems. Applying LiBs in electric traction has initiated a revolution in the automotive industry that is motivated to decarbonize the transport sector and reduce local air pollution. However, like all technology, lithium-ion batteries fail, and the ever-growing number of LiBs in everyday life is likely to result in more failures. Once exposed to abuse conditions, the LiB can go into thermal runaway (TR), resulting in toxic gas, fire or even vapour cloud explosion. Therefore, it is essential that we understand the underlying causes and drastic outcomes of TR, especially in the larger energy systems.
