Postdoctoral Research Associate*

Wellcome Trust Centre For Cell-Matrix Research

Ref: 279/04

The Wellcome Trust Centre for Cell-Matrix Research is an 
interdisciplinary research centre embedded within the School of 
Biological Sciences at the University of Manchester. The Centre was 
established in 1995 with the long-term aims of elucidating the structure 
and function of extracellular matrices, cell-matrix adhesions, and cell 
signalling pathways, defining the contribution of cell-matrix 
interactions to human diseases, and developing approaches for preventing 
and treating these diseases.

Applications are invited for a postdoctorate research associate position 
to join a research group integrated into the Wellcome Trust Centre for 
Cell-Matrix Research. The project focuses on the 3D reconstruction of 
fibrillin microfibrils using cryo-electron microscopy and image 
analysis. You should have a PhD in a relevant biological science, 
ideally with practical experience in cryo-electron microscopy and 
protein chemistry.

Appointments are made for one year in the first instance and, upon 
successful completion of the probationary period, are available for a 
further two years. The position is funded by the Wellcome Trust and the 
starting salary is £23,293 p.a., including 2 Wellcome Trust enhancement 
points.
