Permanent positions in Solar Physics/MHD available at the University of Dundee
Grades 8-9 Lecturer and above (£37,012-52,706)

The University of Dundee is recruiting new permanent members of staff under its Dundee Fellows scheme.

One of the main recruitment areas is Solar Physics/Magnetohydrodynamics where successful candidates will join a research group that presently consists of three permanent staff (Prof G. Hornig, Drs D. Pontin and A. Wilmot-Smith) and three PhD students (http://www.maths.dundee.ac.uk/mhd/). Two STFC-funded PDRAs will also join the group in 2013.

Successful applicants are likely be early career researchers who have demonstrated their potential to become leaders in the field. However, more established researchers are also encouraged to apply. We interpret the research area in its broadest sense and welcome applications in all areas of theory, modelling and observations of solar, space and astrophysical plasmas. The posts are research-focussed for the first 5 years, with a gradually increasing emphasis on undergraduate and postgraduate teaching (up to a normal level for a position on the Lecturer-Professor scale).

More information and details of how to apply are available at http://www.dundee.ac.uk/dundeefellows/
The MHD group also welcome all informal enquiries and discussion (contact e.g. antonia@maths.dundee.ac.uk)

The closing date is 23rd January.
