Opportunities

Join the lab

We are always looking for outstanding researchers with an enthusiasm for bioelectronics, nanomaterials and drug delivery. Positions are available at multiple levels, from undergraduate and masters projects through to PhD studentships and postdoctoral research. If you are interested in our research and would like to discuss potential opportunities, please get in touch with Akhil directly. Speculative applications from motivated individuals are very welcome.

Postdoctoral

Postdocs

We currently have no open postdoctoral positions, but my EPSRC Open Fellowship provides five years of support for the lab, from 2026 to 2031, and we may advertise a position later in 2027. Please check this page again in mid‑2027 for updates.

In the meantime, if you are interested in applying for an MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship, Newton International Fellowship, or another postdoctoral fellowship, please get in touch to discuss the possibility of developing a joint application.

PhD

PhD students

PhD studentship positions are available. Search current listings through the University of Manchester's postgraduate research pages, or get in touch directly to discuss a project.

Short visit

Short visits

We welcome enquiries for short research visits, including through schemes such as the Commonwealth Scholarship and Fellowship Plan. Please get in touch to discuss what might be possible.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

We welcome everyone

We are committed to building an inclusive and supportive research environment, and we welcome applications from researchers of all backgrounds. We particularly encourage enquiries from groups that are underrepresented in science and engineering.
