[Neutron] POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN FOOD STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS AT ANSTO [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

[GILBERT, Elliot Paul]

Post Doctoral Fellowship
Food Structure and Dynamics
2 year term (with possible 1 year extension)
Salary range: A$72,358 (plus 15.4% superannuation)

ANSTO is one of Australia's foremost scientific research and development
organisations, focused
on delivering the benefits of nuclear science to the Australian
community.

The Bragg Institute is the research centre for the construction and use
of neutron-scattering
instrumentation at the new OPAL reactor close to Sydney. The Scientists
of The Bragg Institute
are renowned for being the leading group of neutron scatterers in the
Southern Hemisphere.

We are seeking a recent PhD graduate in chemistry, biology, materials
science or a related area
with a strong innovation focus, good communication skills and a proven
publication record who can
work well within small cross-disciplinary teams and can collaborate
strongly with other research
groups. Experience in the application of small-angle neutron or X-ray
scattering methods including
data analysis and an interest in community outreach are essential.

The fellow will join ANSTO's Food Science Project and work in a major
initiative applying a
multidisciplinary approach to understand the structure and dynamics in
food-based systems. The
current interests of the group relate to, but are not limited to,
proteins and polysaccharides. The
fellow will interact closely with collaborators both in Australia and
internationally and will have the
opportunity to use the state-of-the-art SANS instrument at OPAL, Quokka.

The successful Post Doctoral Fellow will interact closely with national
and international
collaborators and will have the opportunity to publish in high impact
journals, present their work at
international conferences and to access major facilities through
existing networks of collaborative
partners.

To be eligible for appointment, applicants will require a security and
medical assessment.
