University of Leicester, United Kingdom
We are seeking outstanding Postdoctoral Researchers to join a Wellcome Trust Discovery Award-funded project investigating the structural mechanisms underlying genome regulation. The successful candidates will apply cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and integrative structural biology approaches to study regulatory protein complexes central to genome regulation.
The positions are based within a highly collaborative university and research institute environment, offering access to excellent cryo-EM facilities and strong international partnerships. These roles provide an exceptional opportunity to work at the interface of structural biology and genome regulation, addressing fundamental biological questions using cutting-edge methodologies.
The position is offered on a fixed-term contract, with the possibility of extension subject to funding. The post holder will benefit from access to outstanding cryo-EM facilities, excellent research support, and an internationally connected research environment.
Key responsibilities include:
- Applying cryo-EM and integrative structural biology approaches to study regulatory protein complexes
- Contribute to experimental design, data analysis, and interpretation
- Work collaboratively within an international research network
- Disseminate results through high-quality publications and presentations
