The Charles Darwin Professorship of Animal Embryology, Cambridge University.

Posted by , on 16 February 2016

Closing Date: 15 March 2021

The Charles Darwin Professorship of Animal Embryology is endowed by the Bles Fund, which states rather splendidly that it is for “ the promotion and furtherance of biology as a pure science”.    Notwithstanding this, holders of this prestigious chair have done work of fundamental significance in embryology and developmental biology, that has subsequently found widespread application. The most recent holder of the chair was Professor Ron Laskey.

The prime criterion for selection will be “an outstanding research record of international stature in some aspect of animal embryology. The chair may be held in any Department or Institute of the School of Biology in Cambridge.

The advertisement is online on the Cambridge University website  http://www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/9519/, and will shortly appear in Nature and Science.    The link for the further particulars is http://www.admin.cam.ac.uk/offices/academic/secretary/professorships/index.html.

 

The deadline for applications is March 17th.
