Careers & Current Vacancies in Physiology

Junior Research Fellow in Neurovascular Research
The University of Tasmania

This is a research-intensive role contributing to a NHMRC-funded program investigating neurovascular deficits in neurological diseases. More information can be found on the UTAS Jobs & Careers page (Job No. 495617). Applications close 15^th March 2021.
Assistant Professor, THe University of British Columbia

Assistant Professor level (tenure track) in the School of Health and Exercise Sciences at the University of British Columbia in Kelowna, BC, Canada. Please find the full job posting at this link. The closing date for applications is March 30^th, 2021.
PhD Research Opportunity: Muscle Research Laboratory
The University of Queensland, Brisbane Qld

An exciting opportunity exists for students to join a collaborative project between the Muscle Research Laboratory and the Centre for Sensorimotor Neuroscience to conduct research into muscle physiology and energetics. See PDF for more information.
Endocrine physiologist
The Department of Basic and Applied Medical Sciences at the University of Ghent - Medical School seeks applicants for a tenure-track faculty position in basic endocrine physiology. In particular we look for researchers interested in (but not limited to) the fields of neuro-endocrine physiology, paracrine signaling and mechanisms of metabolic diseases. Our research group is committed to tackling fundamental physiological questions at a molecular/cellular level, including the biophysics of channels and transporters. We are an interactive group that encourages research at the interface of multiple disciplines and team science.

Applicants should submit all required documents before February 12th 2021 to The University of Ghent Careers page. Presubmission queries, can be directed to Dr. Frank Bosmans (frank.bosmans@ugent.be). Evaluation of applications will continue until the position is filled.
PhD Research Opportunity:
The ARC Industrial Transformation Training Centre (ITTC) for Cryo-EM of Membrane Proteins for Drug Discovery (CCeMMP).

The CCeMMP is working together with partners to develop novel approaches to modulate targets involved in a range of conditions including cancer, infection, bacterial resistance and metabolic disease. For more information visit www.ccemmp.org
PostDoc Position in RNA Biology and Adipose Metabolism:
Rigshospitalet, University of Copenhagen

This position is offered by the Nielsen Group and aims to use a High Content FISH Imaging approach to identify new metabolic regulators based on the cellular location rather than expression levels. In this way we hope to develop a screening tool that can identify novel organelle cross talk in adipocytes mediated by lncRNAs. More details about the position and submission procedure can be found here
PhD Research Project: Effects of the chronic Beta2 agonist formoterol on insulin sensitivity and cardiac function in rats. University of Tasmania.
