Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 2 // 17 December 2024

Applications are invited for a temporary post of a Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 2 within UCD School of Agriculture and Food Science.

The ClosertoNatureFor project aims to review the concept of Closer-To-Nature Forest Management, understand what it means in an Irish context and determine the extent to which it is being practised in Ireland. It will do so by conducting a review of forest types/management practices, in conjunction with stakeholders, that could be considered to align with the EU guidelines on Closer-to-Nature Forest Management. The project will also identify the barriers and enabling factors to the uptake of Closer-to-Nature Forest Management in Ireland.

This is an advanced research focused role, building on the applicant's prior experience as a post-doctoral fellow, where you will conduct a specified programme of research supported by research training under the supervision and direction of a Principal Investigator.

The primary purpose of the role is to develop new or advanced research skills and competences, on the processes of publication in peer-reviewed academic publications and scholarly dissemination, the development of funding proposals, and the supervision and mentorship of graduate students along with the opportunity to develop your skills in research led teaching.
