We wish to appoint a Post-Doctoral Researcher for 18 months in the field of geochronology, starting in July 2024. The successful candidate will work on the project “EIRbSr – Establishing a national geochronological database underpinned and expanded by a new Irish LA–ICP–MC–MS/MS Rb–Sr capability”, principally funded by the Geological Survey Ireland (GSI) and additionally supported by the National Centre for Isotope Geochemistry at UCD (NCIG) and iCRAG, the Science Foundation Ireland Research Centre in Applied Geosciences. Hosted at UCD and working with project collaborators across iCRAG, UCD, Trinity College Dublin, and the GSI, the dual focus of this post will be the development of an LA–ICP–MC–MS/MS Rb–Sr in situ dating protocol using the new Thermo Fisher NeomaTM at the NCIG and the construction and population of Ireland’s first geochronological database.
Applicants should have a PhD in geochemistry or a closely related field and hands on laboratory experience in either geochronology, LA–ICP–MS, or isotope geochemistry. Experience in LA–ICP–MS/MS geochronology or collision/reaction cell mass spectrometry, geoscientific database construction or data analytics, or knowledge of Irish or Caledonian geology will be looked upon favourably.
