Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in Molecular Biology
BBSRC-funded project to investigate mechanisms of alternative translation initiation codon selection in the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression.
£27,183 - £33,432 p.a.
You are invited to apply for the post of Research Fellow in the research group of Dr Mark Coldwell to undertake a BBSRC-funded project to investigate mechanisms of alternative translation initiation codon selection in the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression. The project will use a number of biochemical and cell biology techniques. You will require a thorough knowledge of laboratory techniques including RNA and protein manipulation. A background in gene expression would be of value.
You will have a PhD in a relevant subject area and an experimental laboratory background is essential. Project management skills are desirable. You should be an enthusiastic scientist, a good team-worker and an excellent communicator. The position is full-time and available immediately for a period of three years.
