Two postdoctoral research associates - structural biology


Imperial College London, South Kensington, London, United Kingdom
Application deadline: 27 Feb 2020


Imperial College London are recruiting two Research Associates in the Section of Structural Biology at South Kensington in the research group of Professor Dale Wigley.

Duties and responsibilities

You will join a multi-disciplinary team of international researchers investigating the structures and mechanisms of chromatin modifying complexes in human DNA damage repair and cancer. We combine structural biology techniques (mainly cryoEM) with molecular biology/biochemistry to understand molecular mechanisms for DNA repair that prevent cancer in humans. Successful applicants will have proven expertise in either or both of these areas.

Essential requirements

You must hold a PhD, or equivalent, in biochemistry, enzymology or structural biology and have a demonstrated track record in conducting high quality original research. Experience at postgraduate or post-doctoral level in structural biology (crystallography or electron microscopy) and/or biochemistry is essential. Experience in expression/purification of multi-protein complexes in insect or human cells is desirable.
