Langford Vets is seeking to recruit two Residents in veterinary anaesthesia to work within our team offering referral anaesthesia services and undergraduate teaching. The position will satisfy the requirements for residency training and the successful candidate will be required to register for an alternative residency programme with the European College of Veterinary Anaesthetists. You will be based primarily in the Small Animal Referral Hospital with some time spent in the Translational Biomedical Research Centre, Large Animal Practice, and Bristol Zoo. Visits and externships to equine hospitals with whom we have reciprocal agreements are scheduled to meet the requirements of the training programme.

We are the largest referral centre in the south-west of England and consequently have a busy and varied caseload of around 3,500 small animal anaesthetics a year. The clinical team is friendly, mutually supportive, and recognises the contributions of each discipline to the overall success of patient care.  Along with clinical anaesthesia we provide an acute and chronic pain service and support the intensive care unit in the management cases which require invasive or non-invasive ventilation. The hospital is equipped to a very high standard, and we have dedicated anaesthesia ultrasound and endoscopy units.

The department currently comprises 5 senior anaesthetists, 4 residents enrolled in an ECVAA training program and 6 anaesthesia nurses. The successful candidate would be expected to contribute to the on-call rota and participate in small group and individual under- and post-graduate student teaching on clinics.

The position would suit a Veterinary Surgeon wanting to pursue a specialist career, who has spent a minimum of 2 years in practice including a rotating internship. Annual leave entitlement is 33 days (includes bank holidays) and approximately 20% of time will be devoted to scholarly activity on a rota, including 10 days a year available for CPD. The positions are tenable for 36 months and start in October 2023 and January 2024, attracting a salary of £34,282.52.

The Langford campus is situated 10 miles south of Bristol in a lush valley on the edge of the Mendip hills. Bristol and its environs are arguably the best place to live in the UK, with a vibrant local food scene, a huge range of cultural attractions and amazing countryside with easy access to hills, ancient woodlands, rivers and the beautiful beaches of the South West and Wales.

Fully Funded PhD Opportunity

A PhD studentship is available in the Spinal Cord Group (SCG) at the University of Glasgow, researching the mammalian somatosensory nervous system.

The aim of this project is to better understand dog sensory neurons.
This will help us develop effective treatments for dogs in chronic pain and will also give crucial information that may help development of novel human analgesics. The project will have research and translational applications, which will both be explored during the PhD.

For further details and to apply Fully Funded Studentship – Single-Cell Transcriptomics of Canine Sensory Neurons at University of Glasgow on FindAPhD.com (https://www.findaphd.com/phds/project/fully-funded-studentship-single-cell-transcriptomics-of-canine-sensory-neurons/?p156422)

Background

Animals sense their environment via a complex system of sensory neurons. These neurons include a class known as nociceptors that transduce painful stimuli. Newly developed advanced molecular techniques have revolutionised our ability to understand these cells.
In particular, the ability to measure RNA expression at the level of the single-cell has given us fascinating insight into the different types of sensory neurons and their likely role in helping us sense our environment.

We have an ever-increasing depth of understanding of the neurobiology of sensory neurons in rodents and humans, but our knowledge of the molecular architecture of the canine sensory system lags behind. This knowledge deficit limits our ability to apply novel therapeutics to the dog and the value of the dog as a translational model for chronic painful disease. This project aims to increase our understanding of canine sensory neurons using cutting-edge neuroscience techniques.

During the project the student will investigate canine sensory neurons using post-mortem tissue from companion animals. The studentship will involve a variety of experimental approaches including fluorescent-activated cell sorting, cell culture, immunohistochemistry, single-nucleus RNA sequencing & R-based bioinformatics, and fluorescent multiplexed in situ hybridisation.

The PhD will be based within the Spinal Cord Group at the Gilmorehill campus, and the successful candidate will work in a supportive and friendly environment alongside a number of other groups conducting pain and sensory neuroscience research. The ideal candidate will be enthusiastic about pain research with an interest in canine health and the value of the dog as a translational model. The project would be ideally suited to a veterinary surgeon with an interest in academic veterinary medicine, however applicants with other relevant degrees are also encouraged to apply. Informal enquires are welcome via email to Drs Bell or Weir.

Funding Notes

The scholarship is available as a full-time 3.5 year programme only.
The funding includes:
An annual tax-free stipend at the UKRI rate, currently £17,668 for non-veterinary graduates and £21,428 for veterinary graduates.
Fees at the standard home UK rate. EU/International fees are not included and hence the studentship can only be undertaken by UK domiciled students based on currently available funding.

Applicants must have or expect to obtain the equivalent of a 1st or 2:1 degree in any subject relevant to the studentship including, but not limited to, veterinary medicine, neuroscience, biology, molecular biology etc.
