Postdoctoral Scientist – Structural biology – IRC200077 
Starting Salary £27,729 – £30,486
Band Salary £27,084 – £32,324
MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge UK

We seek to appoint a postdoctoral scientist to the Division of Structural Studies to undertake single particle electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) analysis of multi-subunit complexes related to regulation of the cell cycle with specific reference to mitosis and cytokinesis. This is a position funded by Cancer Research UK for 2 years and is located at the MRCLaboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, UK within the group of David Barford.

The project would suit a highly motivated and committed scientist interested in molecular mechanisms of the cell cycle and cancer biology. 

The successful applicant will hold at least a PhD (or equivalent) in a biological/physical science. Experience with either single particle electron microscopy or protein crystallography is essential. 
The post is available from 1st September 2015.
