PhD opportunity at the University of Southampton on metabolic health , GLP-1 receptor agonists , and pancreas–bone crosstalk . This project asks whether bone density loss seen in people taking GLP-1 weight-loss drugs is caused by the medication itself or by weight loss and reduced skeletal loading. It also investigates possible pancreatic effects of long-term exposure, especially in people with excess pancreatic fat. You will work with micro-CT imaging of patient pancreatic tissue, human stem-ce...

About this position

Queen Mary University of London is advertising an informal expression of interest for a postdoctoral position in ion channel electrophysiology at the Blizard Institute.

The project is centered on the structure, function, and regulation of neuronal voltage-gated calcium channels. The successful candidate will work in Ivan Kadurin’s lab and will contribute to research on mechanisms of pathological pain, with collaborations involving the groups of Rajesh Khanna and Alex Clark. These collaborations provide access to complementary in vivo models and patient-derived iPSC sensory neurons.

The post is especially suitable for researchers with experience in electrophysiology and/or functional imaging, ideally with primary neuronal cultures or iPSC-derived neurons. The lab also offers opportunities to broaden skills in molecular and cellular biology, protein biochemistry, and computational structural approaches.

The position is funded for up to three years through a recently awarded MRC grant and is expected to start no later than November 2026. This is not yet a formal advertised call, but the post invites informal contact from potential candidates.

To express interest, email [email protected] and review the lab website for more information about the research group.

Funding details

The postdoctoral position is funded for up to three years through a recently awarded MRC grant and is expected to start no later than November 2026.

What's required

Applicants should have experience in electrophysiology and/or functional imaging approaches, ideally using primary neuronal cultures or iPSC-derived neurons. The role is suited to candidates interested in neuronal voltage-gated calcium channels and collaborative translational neuroscience. Informal expressions of interest are invited; no formal application requirements are stated in the post.

How to apply

Contact Ivan Kadurin informally by email to express interest. Include relevant experience in electrophysiology, functional imaging, neuronal cultures, or iPSC-derived neurons. Review the lab website for more information before reaching out.
