A tenure-track research lectureship has been created in the general area 
of macromolecular structure, with a particular focus on the linkup 
between neutron scattering approaches and state-of-the-art atomic 
resolution cryo-electron microscopy. The post is funded jointly by Keele 
University and the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL), and will be located in 
Grenoble. The appointee will form an integral part the of cryo-EM team 
that will support the operation of a newly installed Titan Krios 
microscope that is located at the European Synchrotron Radiation 
Facility (ESRF). The cryo-EM team is led by the ESRF and also includes 
scientists from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) and the 
French Institute of Structural Biology (IBS). The current position will 
constitute the ILL component of this team.  The post-holder will, in 
addition to playing a key role in supporting the user programme of the 
microscope, have a major focus on exploiting the synergy between neutron 
scattering and cryo-EM, particularly for the study of large biological 
complexes. The successful candidate will also be expected to contribute 
to teaching in the Life Sciences as well as carry out forefront research.
