Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in DNA Replication : Brighton, United Kingdom

School of Life Sciences – Genome Damage and Stability Centre

Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in DNA Replication
Ref: 272

Fixed term, full time

Starting at £31,342 and rising to £37,394 per annum

Expected start date: As soon as possible

Applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates for a full-time, fixed term position as a postdoctoral researcher with Professor. Aidan Doherty at the Genome Damage and Stability Centre, University of Sussex, Brighton. The centre is part of the School of Life Sciences, which is at the forefront of research in the biological sciences in the UK, coming in the top 10 in the REF 2014. This appointment is funded by theBBSRC for a minimum of 3 years, including a probationary period.

The aim of this project is to study the molecular mechanisms employed by the PrimPol pathway that promote efficient genome replication at sites of DNA damage. The successful candidate will join a team employing biochemical, cellular and structural approaches to characterise the roles of PrimPol, a newly discovered polymerase, and its partners play in damage tolerance during chromosomal replication in human cells (Bianchi et al, 2013; Rudd et al., 2013, 2014; Keen et al., 2014; Gulliam et al., 2015). The successful applicant will join the Genome Damage and Stability Centre, an internationally renowned Institute carrying out research on the response of cells to DNA damage, genome instability and its relationship to human disease.

Applicants should have a track record in basic research and must have a Ph.D. in biological sciences. Experience in studying biochemical and molecular aspects of DNA replication/repair enzymes and their complexes would be particularly desirable but other applicants with relevant experience will also be considered. A working knowledge of cellular and/or structural biology approaches would be an added advantage. Candidates should have excellent communication and organisational skills; be highly motivated and passionate about basic research; and have strong documentation, oral and interpersonal skills.

The School is committed to equality and valuing diversity, and currently holds an Athena SWAN Bronze Award. Applications are particularly welcomed from women and black and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic posts in science and engineering at Sussex. The School of Life Sciences welcomes applications to academic posts from candidates who wish to work part-time or as job-sharers. The University offers various schemes to provide real benefits to parents.

The University of Sussex is committed to equality of opportunity
