Postdoctoral Research Scientist in Mitochondrial Biology and Chemical Genetics CRUK Scotland Institute in United Kingdom

Department of Pathology, University of Cambridge is advertising a fully funded PhD studentship in the lab of Professor Heike Laman . The project investigates how ubiquitin regulates secretory trafficking in dopaminergic neurons , with a focus on how the E3 ubiquitin ligase subunit FBXO7 controls protein movement through the secretory pathway. The research uses human stem cell-derived neurons as a model system and combines live-cell imaging , RUSH assays , proteomics , and functional experiments....

PhD opportunity at Queen's University Belfast and the University of Glasgow in food chemistry, metabolomics, intestinal epithelial biology, and mammalian metabolism . This funded BBSRC CASE studentship investigates how meat-derived nitrite metabolites and other N-nitroso compounds affect metabolic homeostasis and intestinal epithelial adaptation . The project compares standard cured and nitrite-free meat matrices and explores how dietary components regulate tissue resilience and systemic metabol...

PhD opportunity at Aston University in Dr Lissette Sanchez-Aranguren’s research group, offered through the MIBTP doctoral training programme . The project focuses on cardiolipin-containing membranes and mitochondrial biology , with research themes spanning membrane biochemistry , cellular metabolism , and mitochondrial function . This is a strong fit for students interested in biomedical research, bioenergetics, and the molecular mechanisms that govern mitochondrial behavior. The post invites ap...

PhD opportunity at the University of Dundee in the Faculty of Life Sciences on identification of novel mitochondrial mechanisms in cellular homeostasis . The project is supervised by Prof Miratul Muqit and Prof Dario Alessi and focuses on mitochondrial quality control, especially the PINK1/Parkin pathway, mitophagy, and the early biochemical changes that occur after mitochondrial damage. The research will use newly developed methods to rapidly isolate mitochondria for downstream proteomics , met...
