[Carolyn Moores]

Dear colleagues

The Institute for Structural and Molecular Biology (ISMB) is seeking 
applications to fill a lectureship in the field of Structural Biology of 
Metabolic Diseases.

*Duties and Responsibilities*

The Institute for Structural and Molecular Biology (ISMB) is seeking 
applications to fill a lectureship in the area of Structural Biology of 
Metabolic Diseases. We are particularly interested (but not limited to) 
in individuals capable of determining atomic or near-atomic resolution 
structures of metabolic enzyme complexes and membrane transport 
proteins, complexes and machineries by Electron Microscopy and X-ray 
crystallography, and of using multi-disciplinary approaches to elucidate 
their mechanisms.

We want to recruit an outstanding individual who is capable of 
developing independent world-class, interdisciplinary research in the 
chosen subject. Successful candidates should have a PhD in a subject 
related area and have a demonstrated capability to initiate and conduct 
leading-edge research, enthusiasm for teaching and the determination to

expected to make an appropriate contribution to the affiliated 
departments’ portfolios of graduate and undergraduate teaching.

The ISMB (www.ismb.lon.ac.uk <http://www.ismb.lon.ac.uk>) is a centre of 
excellence, which jointly consists of the Department of Biological 
Sciences at Birkbeck College and the Research Department of Structural & 
Molecular Biology at University College London (UCL). The Institute 
provides a scientific environment conducive to world-class research in 
the field of biomolecular science. Work at the Institute seeks to 
integrate the cell and molecular biosciences to investigate the 
molecular basis of human diseases.

*Salary: *Grade 8 of Birkbeck College’s London Pay Scale which is 
£42,446 rising to £49,964 per annum. This post is full-time, 35 hours 
per week and open-ended
