The successful candidate will work on the Forensic-OMICS project, which has been awarded by Dr Procopio and funded by the prestigious UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship scheme, that consists in the first global application of several "omics" technologies aimed to address ageing phenomena primarily for forensic applications, but also for archaeological ones. The appointed candidate will apply genomics/methylomics, proteomics and metabolomics/lipidomics methodologies to human forensic and archaeological samples; the ultimate goal will be the development of a mathematical model, using machine learning algorithms, able to estimate the time elapsed since death and the chronological age of the victim in a precise and reliable manner.
