We have an exciting opportunity for a Research Assistant/Associate within Stephen Tait's lab based at the Cancer Research UK Beatson Institute in Glasgow, UK. We research mitochondrial regulation of cell death and inflammation, exploiting these processes to improve cancer treatment. We are on the lookout for a new team member with experience in molecular cell biology and/or mouse models to carry out cutting-edge discovery research.

In return, our lab provides a fun, inclusive and supportive environment with a proven track-record in postdoc career development. The Beatson Institute offers a fantastic, collaborative environment to carry out research, underpinned by outstanding core facilities. This is all based in Glasgow, a vibrant city within easy access of stunning countryside.
