Vacancy Ref: 153610
Salary: Professor, Grade 10 will be within the Professorial range and
subject to negotiation
Senior Lecturer, Grade 9, 57,696 - 64,914 per annum

The School of Biodiversity, One Health and Veterinary Medicine has an
exciting opportunity to appoint a Professor/Senior Lecturer in Comparative
Genomics. You will make a substantial and positive contribution to the
strategic direction of the School/College through leading and contributing
to research of international standard, high quality teaching at both
undergraduate and postgraduate level, securing research funding, and
providing academic leadership and management within the School/College.

Applications are invited from candidates of international standing with
an appropriate record of academic achievement in comparative genomics
and associated omics technologies. We are looking for a candidate who
will complement our existing strengths in clinical veterinary medicine,
evolutionary biology, and animal physiology, with a demonstrable interest
in using domestic mammals among their study systems. We are particularly
interested in applications from candidates with a track record of
studying health related traits and their underlying genomic basis in
companion animals. Traits of specific interest include those related
to metabolism, ageing, and disease (e.g. cancer, autoimmune diseases,
neuromuscular disorders).

The School of Biodiversity, One Health and Veterinary Medicine is home to
researchers studying organismal biology and animal health across a diverse
range of systems, approaches and disciplines with existing strengths
in infectious disease, physiology, ageing, veterinary epidemiology, and
evolution among others. You will be based on the University of Glasgow's
Garscube campus, where the majority of veterinary teaching and research
infrastructure is located. This includes the Small Animal Hospital (a
recent 15M investment) and our Veterinary Diagnostic Services, offering
excellent opportunities for collaborative research at the clinical and
translational interface, especially with respect to companion animals.

We welcome applications from candidates with a Scottish Credit and
Qualification Framework level 12 (PhD) in animal biology, genomics and
health or related discipline with an extensive and established reputation
in research and significant teaching experience within the subject area.
