Dear All
Applications
are invited for a Post-Doctoral Research Associate (PDRA) to work in
the School of Earth Sciences at the University of Bristol.
The PDRA will work on the consortium project ‘Quantifying disequilibrium processes in basaltic volcanism (DisEqm)’ funded by the UK Natural Environmental Research Council. The successful candidate will have a strong background in the physical Earth sciences with experience of experimental research and quantitative analysis of experimental data, knowledge and understanding of igneous petrology, a demonstrated capacity to complete complex projects to the highest standard, and strong communication, team-working and interpersonal skills.
The
DisEqm consortium is led by the University of Manchester, and includes the
Universities of Bristol, Durham, Cambridge, and Arizona State and the Diamond
Light Source at Harwell. The PDRA will be fully embedded in the broader

Prof Mike Burton and Dr Margaret Hartley (both University of Manchester), and
Dr Ed Llewellin (Durham University). The PDRA will join the large and vibrant
volcanology and petrology groups in the School of Earth Sciences at Bristol.
Duration: 4-years fixed-term
Start-date: 1st September 2016 (some flexibility is possible).
