Postdoctoral Research Associate – Correlative Microscopy

Harwell, Oxfordshire

Salary £33,963 to £39,955 per annum (Discretionary range to £45,949)

Full time, 3 years fixed term

 

eBIC (the Electron Bio-Imaging Centre based at Diamond Light Source)
provides scientists with state-of-the-art experimental equipment and
expertise in the field of cryo-electron microscopy, for single particle
analysis cryo-tomography and electron crystallography. Currently eBIC houses
four Titan Krios microscopes, a Talos Arctica, Scios and Aquilos
cryo-FIB/SEM, and additional Krios and Glacios for industry applications
(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.diamond.ac.uk/Instruments/Biological-Cryo-Imaging/eBIC.html__;!!Mih3wA!QOJIQDl3wMol6NEcerriDxEu0SLIuIBKa5Bi1-ERPHI2bN2OaHaBYX22OgB8p28nuw$ ). 

 

We are seeking a highly motivated PDRA to carry out their own innovative
research by developing and applying an integrative correlative microscopy
workflow to address biological questions. You will use optical microscopes
(cryoSIM and cryoCLEM), with Scios/Aquilos cryoFIB/SEM instrument and Krios
microscopes at Diamond and set up novel experiments to push the boundaries
of correlative microscopy with cryo-super-resolution and in situ structural
biology. Important studies will be the investigation of pathogen and host
cell interactions, including SARS-Cov-2. In addition, the successful
candidate will play an active role to assist users with their experiments in
eBIC.

 

You should have a PhD degree in structural biology or biophysics and have a
demonstrated record of accomplishment in conducting high quality original
research. Knowledge at postgraduate level in cryoEM/ET is essential and
experience in fluorescence microscopy and live cell imaging is desirable.

 

Applicants are required to outline their suitability for this role via the
online application process and should include a summary of their
accomplishment and research interests. 

 

For further information about this role please contact Peijun Zhang
(peijun.zhang at diamond.ac.uk <mailto:peijun.zhang at diamond.ac.uk> ).
