The earth's daily rotation causes profound, yet repetitive, changes to environmental conditions.In response, species from prokaryotes to humans have evolved circadian clocks to drive anticipatory daily rhythms in biological processes ranging in magnitude from DNA replication to sleep-wake cycles.However, cellular, tissue and systemic circadian rhythms exhibit a generalised decay during the ageing process that may contribute to the development of aged-related diseases and onset of frailty.In the Circadian Rhythms and Ageing Laboratory, we aim to determine why this detrimental decay occurs and ask how we can correct or exploit these changes.To help make these experimental dreams a reality, we are looking to bring on board an experienced researcher to take on the key role of Laboratory Manager.The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring a seamless day-to-day running of the laboratory, whilst simultaneously providing hands-on experimental support and technical training to help the lab reach its academic goals.The ideal candidate will have demonstrable experience working with murine models of disease and a strong academic grounding in the fields of oncology and/or ageing.A Ph D in a related research area and experience working with murine disease models are essential requisites.Candidates with more senior profiles are actively encouraged to apply.Main responsibilities and dutiesCoordinate and carry out tasks essential to the day-to-day running of the laboratory (purchasing, equipment maintenance etc.).Implement strategies to inventory laboratory resources and ensure ease of access.Work together with the PI to ensure a sound management of lab finances.Aid in the on-boarding and training of new lab members.Provide punctual
