Postdocs / Research Fellows

Any postdoc positions I have available will be advertised on www.jobs.ac.uk. If you are interested in joining the Hughes Lab then there are also a number of funding schemes that I can help you apply to for fellowships depending on your career stage and nationality, including NERC, BBSRC, the Carlsberg Foundation, DFG, FWF, EMBO, HFSP, and the Royal Society. We have a particularly good track record of success in hosting EC-funded Marie Curie Fellowships. If you are interested in potentially applying for a fellowship to join us then please email me (william.hughes@sussex.ac.uk) with a copy of your CV, a brief outline of your research interests, and some thoughts on funding sources, and we can discuss possibilities.

PhD studentships

Studentships are advertised on www.findaphd.com. The main recruitment round opens in November/December with a deadline for applications in January/February, although studentships are sometimes advertised at other times as well. There are also a couple of funding schemes which we can directly apply to if you are a sufficiently motivated and high quality student, and contact me far enough in advance. If you are interested in carrying out a PhD studentship with us and meet those criteria then email me (william.hughes@sussex.ac.uk) with a copy of your CV and brief summary of your research interests and we can discuss what possibilities there may be.
