A technician position is available in the group of Prof. Katharina Edkins at the Strathclyde Institute of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences (SIPBS) at the University of Strathclyde. Prof. Edkins leads a group investigating the connection between supramolecular interactions in the solution/amorphous phase before and in the crystal structures after crystallisation with the aim to predict the crystallisation outcome of an experiment before performing it. The group is aligned to a major national EPSRC Centre for Innovative Manufacturing in Continuous Manufacturing and Crystallisation (CMAC; www.cmac.ac.uk) and as such benefits from access to world class crystallisation and analytical facilities in a community of cross-disciplinary postgraduate and post-doctoral researchers looking at various aspects of crystallisation, secondary manufacturing, and advanced solid state analysis.

This position is part of an ERC consolidator grant funded through the UKRI guarantee scheme (EP/Z00005X/1) and will support the running of the group’s 400 MHz NMR spectrometer with both solution and solid-state probes. The duties include cryogenic fills, exchange of probes when necessary along with the required testing, trouble shooting of problems, liaising with the supplier and arrange visits to resolve larger problems, training users on the instrument and performing support experiments for the group. The successful candidate will further support the PI in running of the research group in terms of ordering, laboratory maintenance, laboratory safety, research support and other relevant day-to-day activities.

The candidate will show experience in running and maintaining an NMR spectrometer with a good fundamental knowledge of the technique. Relevant experience in organising laboratory activities, health and safety, and procurement is highly desirable.

For further information and informal enquiries please contact Prof. Katharina Edkins (Katharina.edkins@strath.ac.uk).
