The Department of Life Sciences undertakes high quality undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and scientific research across the disciplines of Biosciences, Environmental Sciences, Sport, Health & Exercise Sciences, and Psychology. With over 120 academics based on a pleasant campus, we are a highly committed and forward-thinking academic community, proud of our world-leading research, our diversity and the student experience we provide.
The Division of Psychology (https://www.brunel.ac.uk/psychology) delivers a portfolio of successful and popular degree programmes including a BSc Psychology and BSc Psychology (Sport, Health & Exercise) at undergraduate level. At postgraduate level we deliver MSc Psychological Sciences (Conversion), MSc Cognitive & Clinical Neuroscience and MSc Psychology, Culture & Evolution programmes.
An exciting opportunity has arisen to recruit a highly motivated academic to build the research strengths of our Centre for Cognitive & Clinical Neuroscience (CCN), and our teaching capacity in areas across biological psychology and cognitive neuroscience. We are particularly interested in receiving applications from candidates with research expertise in neuropsychology and psychophysiological methods (e.g. EEG or fNIRS) and their applications to advance our understanding of mental illnesses, in terms of their causes, development, course, and treatment.
The CCN (https://www.brunel.ac.uk/research/Centres/Cognitive-Neuroscience) brings together psychologists, cognitive and clinical neuroscientists, neuropsychologists, psychopharmacologists, and sport and exercise psychologists to conduct cutting-edge fundamental and applied research on human brain function in health and disease.
The successful candidate will have a PhD in a relevant area, have appropriate teaching experience in higher education, and an established research profile with publications suitable for submission to the next Research Excellence Framework (REF) exercise.
Brunel has a strong track-record of securing research funding from EU and other international sources. Regardless of the long-term future for UK participation in Horizon Europe, Brunel will continue to ensure that staff have access to non-EU research funding, and we will continue to support our many bilateral collaborations within the EU and will remain an active member of YERUN.
We offer a generous annual leave package plus discretionary University closure days, excellent training and development opportunities as well as a great occupational pension scheme and a range of health-related support. The University is committed to a hybrid working approach.
