The Bates Lab at The Blizard Institute (QMUL) is seeking a 3-year Postdoctoral Researcher as part of a recently funded BBSRC project investigating glycan - microbe interactions using amphibian models. The post holder will use state-of-the-art omics methods and experimentation to dissect how microbiome assembly processes shape host resistance to the deadly fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). To date, Bd has driven at least 500 amphibian species into decline globally, equating to one of the worst diseases of wildlife on record. The PDRA will benefit from a close collaboration with the world-leading Glycosciences Laboratory at Imperial College London and the ZSL Institute of Zoology.
