TSQ Vantage, and Bruker Solarix FT-ICR, and high field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS).

The post holder should have significant hands-on experience of at least one of the following:

  ambient surface mass spectrometry, mass spectrometry imaging, peptide and protein

  analysis, native mass spectrometry, ion mobility mass spectrometry

Main Duties

  To undertake work in the area of mass spectrometry within the specified research grant

  (NAMS: Native ambient mass spectrometry EP/S002979/1)

  Analyse, interpret and disseminate research findings and results

  Contribute to public engagement activities

  Contribute to generating funding and writing bids

The responsibilities include those outlined below.

  To undertake research in ambient mass spectrometry, native mass spectrometry, mass spectrometry imaging, ion mobility spectrometry, and other related mass spectrometry techniques.

  Analyse and interpret data

  Apply knowledge in a way which develops new intellectual understanding

  Disseminate research findings for publication, research seminars etc

  Supervise students on research related work and provide guidance to PhD students where appropriate to the discipline

  Contribute to knowledge transfer in mass spectrometry and related areas that is of manifest benefit to the College and the University, often under supervision of a project leader

Person Specification
