Ivan Kadurin

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.
