Marie Curie PhD Fellows 2023
The Department invites applications for 2 Marie Curie PhD Fellows in 2023. This post is funded by UKRI through a scheme intended to promote international mobility of researchers. As a result, we can only consider candidates who have resided and carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) outside the UK for at least 24 months in the 36 months immediately before their recruitment date. Candidates must not have previously completed a doctoral degree.
There are 2 posts to be considered -
One to work with Dr Andrew Valentine on the topic of “Physics-informed super-resolution imaging of the Earth’s interior”. The successful candidate will become an employee of Durham University and will simultaneously be registered as a PhD student. They will become part of the MCSA Doctoral Network “EarthSafe”, and benefit from a range of training and networking activities – as well as opportunities for secondments at other partner organisations.

The other is to work with Prof. Jeroen van Hunen on the topic of “Investigating Craton Dynamics and Ore Deposit Formation for Sustainable Critical Minerals Supply”. The successful candidate will become an employee of Durham University, and will simultaneously be registered as a PhD student. They will become part of the MCSA Doctoral Network “EarthSafe”, and benefit from a range of training and networking activities – as well as opportunities for secondments at other partner organisations.
