We have applied some changes to ARIA and are monitoring stability, but you can continue to work as normal. We appreciate your understanding.
Applications are invited for a post-doctoral fellow, in the group of Dr Ingo Greger, to undertake research into the structural pharmacology of AMPA glutamate receptor complexes using structural biology approaches (cryo-EM).
The successful applicant should have a PhD in a relevant subject or due to complete PhD within 6 months. They will work in the laboratory of Dr Ingo Greger, in collaboration with Astra Zeneca (Cambridge), to investigate the therapeutic potential of AMPA receptor/auxiliary subunit complexes. Specifically, the post holder will use cryo-EM to investigate the interaction of AMPA receptor complexes with novel modulatory drugs. This project builds on our recent structural and functional work (Herguedas et al., Science 2016 & 2019; Zhang et al., Nature 2021 & 2023; Zhang et al., Nature Comms. 2023).
The LMB has a collaborative working culture and state of the art building based on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus. We have a staff restaurant with roof terrace, on-site nursery, sports and social facilities. You will be eligible to join our defined benefit pension scheme with an employer contribution of 16%, holiday entitlement of 40.5 days (including bank holidays and privilege days) and a generous employee discount scheme. We are also committed to providing training and development opportunities including support towards role-related qualifications.
The MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) is a world-class research institute within UK Research and Innovation (UKRI). UKRI is an entity that brings together nine research and innovation partners, more information can be found here.
