CONTRACT: FULL TIME/FIXED TERM

Biophotonics@Tyndall is a newly established collaborative research
programme based at the Tyndall National Institute led by Professor
Stefan Andersson-Engels. The Group?s focus will be to form close
collaborations with clinicians, research centres and companies to
accelerate biophotonics technology and rapidly deliver breakthrough
technologies into the hands of health-care providers. Using photonics
as a driver for the faster development and deployment of more
accurate, less invasive diagnostic and treatment methods for cancer
and other diseases. The new programme has been formed by the Tyndall
National Institute, the Irish Photonic Integration Centre (IPIC) and
University College Cork, under a ?5M award from Science Foundation
Ireland (SFI).

Reporting to the Head of Biophotonics, the position of Research Fellow
will be expected to provide a supporting operational role in the
expansive research programme and in the supervision and management of
the Biophotonics@Tyndall group at IPIC. The successful candidate will
also be directly responsible for one or more of the projects to be
initiated under this exciting new venture, including finding solutions
to existing clinical and pre-clinical challenges and the advancement
of techniques such as diffuse reflectance, fluorescence, Raman and
photoacoustics. Further details can be found at .

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

The candidate is expected to be creative, self-motivated, and should
inspire group members to work efficiently in a friendly atmosphere and
collaborative environment. This is a key position, of central
importance for the success of building this new biophotonics group at
Tyndall. The main technical area of expertise will therefore most
likely be within waveguide engineering, a very intriguing field with
potential for break-through within deep tissue imaging and
manipulation. This work will primarily be conducted in collaboration
with Prof. Stefan Kr?ll at Lund University and Lihong Wang at
CalTech. The expertise area of research might also be within
biomedical optics systems or integrated optics, other central fields
of research within the team.

Key responsibilities will include:
* Manage the operational development of the Group in line with the
IPIC strategy and the Tyndall Strategic plan.
* Support the identification and development of independent research
programmes
* Lead the management of research capabilities, laboratories and
associated infrastructure in order to successfully execute research
objectives,
* Support the establishment, management and development of the
research team (staff, post-docs and students) and provide mentorship,
coaching and supervision as appropriate
* Contribute to the engagement on intellectual property activities
in partnership with the Office of Technology Transfer
* Contribute to the development of national and international
collaborative research networks and create new
synergies/collaborations between Tyndall and other research third
party bodies
* Leverage existing projects and research facilities at Tyndall in
order to identify new research opportunities and industrial projects
* Independently identify research objectives and potential funding
sources and prepare and write bids for funding proposals
* Establish and maintain key industrial partnerships, including
management and delivery of commercially-focused projects
* Disseminate the outcomes of the research, including
peer?reviewed academic publications and presentations at conferences
of international standing
* Supervise postdocs, post graduate research students as supervisor
and/or co?supervisor, as appropriate
* Participate in post graduate examination internal and external
* Participate in Education and Public Engagement activities, as
required.

disciplines: physics, biomedical engineering, electrical engineering,
or a related field
* At least six years relevant post-doctoral experience
* Track record of high quality peer reviewed publications, as
evidenced by h-index
* Writing of competitive research proposals, national and EU
* Proven track record of securing research funding and the
coordination of successful European and National collaborative
research projects (including industry-focused research)
* The candidate must demonstrate an academic record of scientific
excellence, independent research, and good writing and communication
skills
* Strong theoretical and experimental skills and hands-on experience
with optical systems
* Experienced in the formation and management of research teams,
including supervision to completion of postgraduate students
* Significant experience of research-led teaching and examining at
postgraduate level as the primary academic supervisor

DESIRABLE CRITERIA
* Experiences of relevance for the fields of biomedical optics, the
ultrasound-optical interaction for waveguide engineering project and
within system integration are desired.
* The applicant should be eligible to apply for a SFI starting
investigator research award. He or she will demonstrate a desire to
develop a long term research career in Ireland, and will be committed
to ensuring that research outputs will be exploited to the benefit of
the Irish economy.
* Experienced in the following areas, and will demonstrate an
aptitude to develop key skills in the remaining areas:Supervision of
Postdoctoral Researchers, Postgraduate students and undergraduate
studentsEstablishment and maintenance of key academic and industrial
partnershipsManagement of commercial development projectsFinancial
management of awards
