Mobility and Society (RoBMobS) is an AHRC funded research project based at the Department of Archaeology at the University of York and the School of History, Archaeology and Religion at Cardiff University. The project aims to explore and characterise diversity and mobility in Britannia, assessing both movement within the province and from other areas of the Empire into Britannia. The project employs interdisciplinary approaches to human remains, including a wide suite of biomolecular techniques and burial archaeology. We are seeking a Post-Doctoral Research Associate in Ancient DNA to join the project. This role will focus on the extraction, analysis and interpretation of ancient genetic data from human skeletal material in order to explore genetic diversity within Britannia, alongside genetic kinship and relatedness within cemetery populations. The successful candidate will have a strong track record in the field of ancient DNA analysis and will be responsible for significant aspects of this element of the project, whilst contributing as a team member to the wider research programme. The successful candidate will be expected to contribute to publication and dissemination, including presenting at conferences, working with commercial archaeological units and museum partners, and sharing results with the public.
