The role
We are looking to recruit a talented and motivated research associate to investigate the mechanisms of tumour resistance. We have identified key factors involved in tumour resistance through a comprehensive body of experimental work involving primary tissues and preclinical models. We now aim to validate the functional role of these factors and associated pathways. The long-term goal of this project is to translate our findings into clinical applications.
What will you be doing?
As an integral lab member, you will use various biochemical, molecular, and cell biology techniques to investigate the effects of perturbing key molecules we have identified in the context of tumour resistance. The project is supported by access to our Faculty’s outstanding research facilities, including the Proteomics and Mass Spectrometry Facilities and the Wolfson Bioimaging Facility. You may also have the opportunity to train and work with junior researchers to support your project.
You should apply if
You have a PhD (awarded or imminent) in relevant fields, or in lieu, a strong basic degree with extensive research experience. Experience in aseptic, molecular, and cellular biology techniques are required, with demonstrated ability for independent research reflected in recent primary-author publications. You should have a keen interest in basic and translational research, as well as motivation to succeed and excellent communication skills.
