Lectureship in Neurobiology and Anatomy (Teaching & Scholarship) on the Joint Programme with Nanchang University
We are seeking applications for a Lecturer in Neurobiology and Anatomy. The post is embedded within the School of Biological and Behavioural Sciences, a large and expanding academic unit, which provides a supportive and friendly environment that prides itself on its inclusivity of staff and students, as well as research-lead innovative teaching throughout its educational programmes.
About You
Applicants are expected to have advanced knowledge in these subject areas and the ability to teach related subjects at more introductory levels. Applicants should have an excellent academic background in scientific research with a PhD in Medical Sciences or Life sciences or equivalent. There should also be some background in teaching, at least at undergraduate level.
About Queen Mary
Queen Mary University (QMUL) is a Russell-group research-intensive University that delivers world class research and Higher Education in the UK and overseas. The School of Biological & Behavioural Sciences (SBBS) at QMUL runs a Joint Programme (JP) with Nanchang University, China. In this programme, students substitute nearly all of the first three years of their Nanchang undergraduate medical degree with a modified version of the QMUL BSc in Biomedical Sciences, that is taught in English in Nanchang, China, principally by UK academic faculty flying out to deliver the teaching in small discrete blocks of teaching.
Most of the formal lectures are delivered in Nanchang, although the successful applicants will be based on the Mile End campus, when not abroad.
The Lecturer will also make significant contributions to student education and the student experience on the Nanchang JP through regular updating of taught material, assessments and timely and collegiate engagement across the entire JP. An element of educational scholarship is also expected offering the opportunity for pedagogical research.

We continue to embrace diversity of thought and opinion in everything we do, in the belief that when views collide, disciplines interact, and perspectives intersect, truly original thought takes form.
Benefits

In addition, we offer a range of work life balance and family friendly, inclusive employment policies, flexible working arrangements, and campus facilities including an on-site nursery at the Mile End campus.
