About this position
University of Oxford is advertising a Postdoctoral Researcher in Biological Mass Spectrometry based in Oxford, England, United Kingdom. The project sits under the supervision of Professor Shabaz Mohammad and focuses on developing mass spectrometric strategies for protein-biomolecule interactions as part of a Wellcome Trust-funded collaborative grant.
This post is aimed at researchers with a strong background in chemistry, chemical biology, biochemistry, and related areas of proteomics. The role involves managing independent academic research, adapting and developing scientific techniques and experimental protocols, testing hypotheses, analysing scientific data, contributing ideas for new projects, helping generate research income, and contributing to reports, journal articles, lectures, posters, and presentations.
Applicants should have a relevant PhD/DPhil (or be close to completion) and practical experience with common fragmentation approaches used in proteomics. Strong analytical skills for proteome characterisation, quantitative proteomic data analysis with statistical rigour, bioinformatics and biostatistics for large datasets, and knowledge of complementary structural and biophysical methods are required. Previous publication and presentation experience is also essential.
The position is fixed-term until 1 April 2029 and is funded by a Wellcome Trust consortium. The application deadline is 12 noon on Friday 18 September 2026. Apply via the University of Oxford recruitment portal using the provided link.
