Postdoc in Synthetic Biology and Materials at Imperial College London Imperial College London in United Kingdom

Two postdoctoral fellow positions are available in neurobiology at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology with Dr Michel Goedert . The project focuses on the mechanisms underlying the assembly of alpha-synuclein into the amyloid filaments found in Lewy body diseases and multiple system atrophy in human brains. These are three-year positions funded by an ASAP (Aligning Science Across Parkinson's) grant. The collaboration includes researchers at MRC-LMB , University College London , University of...

Northumbria University is advertising a PostDoc position related to ZooMS , archaeology , Roman material culture, and leather research. The post was shared by Gillian Taylor (Professor at Northumbria University), and the named researchers associated with the opportunity include Rhiannon Stevens , Rebecca Jones , Jasper de Bruin , and Matthew Collins . This looks like a research-focused postdoctoral opening for candidates with interests in archaeological science, biomolecular analysis, and ancien...

PhD opportunity at the University of York in chemistry , focused on designing new chemical routes to diversify therapeutic peptides via amino-carbonylation . The project is part of the Chemical Synthesis for a Healthy Planet (CSHP) CDT and involves collaboration with Johnson & Johnson , Ian Fairlamb (York), and Molly Stevens (Oxford). This is a strong fit for students interested in organic/medicinal chemistry , peptide synthesis , and translational research at the interface of chemistry and drug...

Joshua Lawrence is starting a new group at the University of Warwick School of Life Sciences next September and is advertising two funded PhD opportunities . The lab will be interdisciplinary, combining synthetic biology , electrochemistry , and biophysical methods to map the bioenergetic pathways of microorganisms and engineer them for sustainable biotechnologies. The projects are collaborative with Julie Macpherson and Joseph Beckwith in the Department of Chemistry . Funding is through the Mid...

PhD opportunity in Reconstitution of Cell Division at the Medical Research Council (Cambridge), Laboratory of Molecular Biology, with supervision by Dr J Lowe. This project focuses on molecular biology and structural biology of the bacterial divisome, with emphasis on cell division , FtsZ , membrane-associated protein complexes, and liposome-based reconstitution . The research aims to understand how divisome components assemble and function, and whether liposome constriction is driven by the Fts...
