We are looking to recruit talented and committed scientists. If you are interested in working in the Gumbleton group, then please get in touch. Due to limited lab space and funding, the priorities will be given to high standing applicants with full-sponsoring. If you can apply for your own funding, then please contact us at least three months in advance and you will be given full support for research proposal and application process. Please send a CV and covering letter, along with any enquiries. We do encourage researchers who would like to join our research team to apply for scholarship and fellowship opportunities, for more details contact Dr. Alaa Elbetany, the Chemistry Research Coordinator at Gumbleton group (elbetanya1@cardiff.ac.uk).
