Cryo Electron Microscopy Professors and Supervisors in United Kingdom

Harry Low’s Lab at Imperial College London is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to investigate the structure and mechanism of bacterial secretion systems. The project will use cryo-electron microscopy ( cryo-EM ) and structural biology approaches to understand how these systems function at the molecular level. The work sits at the intersection of bacterial pathogenesis, membrane remodelling and antibiotic discovery. By characterising secretion machinery and its mechanisms, the project aims to...

The University of Bristol is accepting applications for a funded PhD investigating how free fatty acids regulate beta-coronavirus infection. Co-supervised by Christiane Berger-Schaffitzel, Andrew Davidson, Harriet Mears and Paul Verkade, the project will examine how free fatty acids influence coronavirus infection, replication and evolution. It builds on the discovery of a conserved fatty acid-binding pocket in the coronavirus spike protein. The research combines structural biology, electron cry...

The University of Cambridge Department of Pathology, in collaboration with AstraZeneca, is offering a four-year, fully funded PhD studentship beginning 1 October 2027. The project, based at the University of Cambridge and the AstraZeneca Discovery Centre in Cambridge, investigates improved 2A peptides for co-translational separation of polyproteins. 2A peptides enable ribosome skipping, allowing multiple proteins or pathway components to be expressed from a single promoter. The research will inv...
