Post-Doctoral Positions

Any formal open positions will be advertised on this page and candidates with relevant profiles are encouraged to apply.

The group hosts research fellows from a variety of schemes including the following:

Candidates interested in applying for such fellowships should email strankslab-manager[a]ceb.cam.ac.uk with a CV and short statement of research interests and indication of which scheme is being considered. Applications will be batched and reviewed soon after two deadlines each year -- 31 March and 30 November -- to ensure decisions to support are made in sufficient time ahead of call deadlines. The group will short-list candidates whose profile and research interests are a good fit for the group and funding scheme and will contact them for further discussions. Applications received outside these dates but still ahead of a call deadline may be considered case by case. Responses to all enquiries, including informal enquiries, may not be possible.
