Job Description
Project context
You will work with an interdisciplinary team of staff and students from across King’s College London and with key external collaborators from the University of Warwick on a project to improve the understanding neurodivergent (ND) student and staff lived experiences of studying and working in UK HE. There will be focus on accessibility of marking criteria, assessment, and feedback.
The content is based on student and staff data that has already been collected from quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews and focus groups at the collaborating institutions. These explored neurodivergent learning and teaching experiences. This project aims to capture best practice, promote collaboration (student/staff) and dissemination of ideas and support staff in the development and delivery of inclusive approaches to education.
Job description
Your role will be to work with the NMES Neurodivergent study circle team to transfer the content created by the team onto the course Moodle page and using H5P using the template created. You will update the glossary as needed. Create links to other parts of the course and the reading list. Ensure the reading list for the course is up to date (currently available as H5P accordion).
Phase 3 Content development: Students will work independently, or in small groups to create course content for students and staff working and learning in HE. Once complete this will be transferred onto Moodle page using H5P.
September: Students recruited to give feedback on the subsections created. The feedback will be used to inform improvements to the course.
Phase 4 Resource dissemination and communication of findings: Publishing the 1-hour open source, asynchronous training course for staff and students based in HE settings on the lived experiences of ND students and staff in HE.
Qualifications
Must have experience of navigating UK HE as a neurodivergent person
Skills
Essential:
- Working with interdisciplinary teams
- Experience of digital design (H5P on Moodle)
- An understanding of neurodiversity and the student learning experience
- Attend and support project meetings.
- Excellent written and oral communication skills
- Excellent project management skills.
- Good problem-solving skills
- Digital skills (H5P content creation, word, google docs, excel)
- Understanding of the importance of digital accessibility
Desirable:
- Experience of creating website for users or equivalent
- Experience of digital design
- Video creation and editing

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous type of breast cancer lacking estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epithelial growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression. The high heterogeneity of TNBC has been widely suggested as the reason for poor responses to targeted therapies. While changes in the coding and regulatory genome have been studied in detail, how 40% of the genome comprising the retrotransposable elements (REs) might impact the biology of TNBC is unknown. The aberrant activation of REs and their contribution to oncogenesis of solid tumours have been recently investigated. However, studying the oncogenic and immunogenic roles of REs in TNBC is lagging mainly because of the heterogeneity of this disorder.
Our central hypothesis is that ectopic transcriptional activation of REs in different subtypes of TNBC leads to significant changes in expression of specific genes, a subset of which may play a direct role in tumorigenesis of this malignancy. To address this hypothesis, We need to functionally validate predicted oncogenic and immunogenic REs through the specific aims:
1) Validation of prioritized oncogenic RE-derived chimeric transcripts
2) Immunopeptidome validation of high-affinity scoring RE peptides

The successful candidate will review a set of lecture notes and slides designed for an undergraduate mathematics course. The course covers fundamental topics such as basic mathematical functions, trigonometry, differentiation, integration, and introductory probability theory and inference.
The candidate?s primary responsibility will be to help to bridge the gap between mathematics and the natural sciences by relating the mathematical content to examples from the sciences and by linking the mathematical formalism to conventions (mathematical notation etc.) more commonly used in scientific disciplines. There will also be the opportunity to work with staff in the maths department on the formatting and presentation of content and on the design of assessments.
Qualifications
Undergraduate level or higher degree in a mathematical science (Engineering or Physics preferred)
Skills
- A good understanding of the mathematics required for undergraduate science programmes is essential.
- Experience of delivering undergraduate level mathematics tuition is desirable.
- Experience of supporting preparation of teaching materials for undergraduate mathematics teaching is desirable.
