About The Role

Graduate Research Assistant

There are three full-time posts available from 1 February 2027 (later start date possible). These posts are offered as a fixed term contract and funded by Novo Nordisk Foundation until 31 January 2029. In line with the University’s fair employment for all principles, any further funding opportunities identified will be reviewed and discussed during the contract.

The starting salary will be from £33,951 on Grade E, depending on knowledge, skills and experience.

The role

The University of Exeter is seeking several highly motivated Graduate Research Assistants to contribute to a landmark £16 million UK Biobank epigenetics project that will generate DNA methylation data from 60,000 participants, creating one of the most important resources ever developed for understanding how genes and the environment interact to influence human health and disease. Working within a dynamic and collaborative research environment, you will help generate large-scale DNA methylation data that will support discoveries in dementia, cancer, cardiovascular disease, mental health, ageing and many other major health conditions.

What you'll do

Perform laboratory procedures supporting high-throughput DNA methylation profiling.
Prepare and quality-control samples for DNA methylation array analysis.
Contribute to laboratory workflow development and optimisation.
Maintain rigorous sample tracking and laboratory records.
Work alongside leading researchers in epigenomics, genomics and bioinformatics.
Help generate data that will be used by researchers worldwide.

What we're looking for

We are seeking enthusiastic scientists with a strong interest in molecular biology, genomics or biomedical research. Previous lab experience is desirable, but we are also seeking individuals with excellent organisational skills, attention to detail and the ability to work effectively in a team.

The successful applicant will be able to present information on research progress and outcomes, communicate complex information, orally, in writing and electronically and prepare proposals and applications to external bodies.

Applicants will be educated to first degree level or possess an equivalent qualification/ experience in a related field of study or equivalent experience and be able to demonstrate sufficient knowledge in the discipline and of research methods and techniques to work within established research programmes.

Please ensure you read the Job Description and Person Specification for full details of this role.

What we offer

The opportunity to work on a globally significant scientific programme.
Training in state-of-the-art genomic and epigenomic technologies.
Experience of large-scale biobank and population genomics research.
A supportive and collaborative research environment.
Excellent opportunities for career development in genomics, biotechnology and biomedical research.

Why Exeter?

The University of Exeter is home to internationally leading research in genomics, epigenetics and data science. You will join a team at the forefront of efforts to understand how genetic and environmental factors shape human health, working alongside national and international partners across academia, healthcare and industry.

Help build a resource that will transform our understanding of human disease for decades to come.
