Research Fellow in Philosophy of Biology, University of 
Exeter, UK

This four-year post is funded by a grant from the AHRB (the
Arts and Humanities Research Board) to develop the 
philosophical component of Egenis, and to build research 
capacity in the Philosophy of Biology.  The successful 
candidate will be expected to undertake a substantial 
research project that will contribute to the overall 
mission of Egenis (the ESRC Centre for Genomics in 
Society), the investigation of the meaning and implications
of contemporary genomics.  A PhD in Philosophy of Biology 
or a related area of Philosophy would be ideal, but 
candidates with other backgrounds who are able to 
demonstrate an ability and willingness to develop a 
research project in the philosophy of genetics/genomics are
encouraged to apply.

Enquiries should be addressed to the Director of Egenis, 
Professor John Dupre (j.a.dupre@exeter.ac.uk).  

The appointment will be from 1 April 2004, or as soon 
thereafter as can be arranged.
