📢 I’m recruiting a postdoctoral Research Associate in Mathematical Biomedicine to join my group at The University of Manchester!

Funded through my UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship, the project will develop mathematical and computational approaches for digital endocrinology. The successful candidate will use high-resolution hormonal time-series data and wearable technologies to investigate variability in human circadian rhythms, understand how these rhythms become misaligned, and help translate these insights into personalised approaches for diagnosing and managing endocrine conditions.

The work will draw on methods including:

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
