Join us
The Living Systems Institute (LSI) is a flagship interdisciplinary research institute at the University of Exeter. The ambition of the Institute is to decode the complexity of living systems across scales, from sub-molecular to organismal, and from microbe to human. Our shared mission is to discover, understand and control the fundamental rules of life.
Launched in 2017, the LSI is a unique blend of physicists, mathematicians, engineers, biologists and biomedical scientists housed in purpose-designed research and collaboration space.
Life in the LSI
The posts will be based in the LSI’s purpose built research facility with affiliation to the adjacent relevant Departments. LSI sits at the heart of the University of Exeter’s award winning Streatham Campus, alive with green spaces in the beautiful city of Exeter in the UK’s Southwest.
You will be welcomed into the vibrant LSI community of some 200 PhD students, post-doctoral researchers and principal investigators from around the world working in superb laboratories with excellent facilities, and supported by excellent technical and professional services colleagues.
