Fixed-term until 30 November 2025, Full-time
A postdoctoral Research Scientist opportunity has arisen to investigate - in a collaborative project with a group in Switzerland (EPFL Lausanne)- how organelle networks influence transcriptional programs during adipocyte differentiation and how organelle metabolism defines overall cellular states in the Klemm Lab.
The post holder’s duties will include:
• Managing your own academic research and administrative activities
• Adapting existing and developing new scientific techniques
• Testing hypotheses and analysing scientific data
• Contributing ideas for new research projects
• Collaborating in the preparation of scientific reports
• Acting as a source of information to other members of the group
Applicants must hold, or be close to completion of, a PhD/DPhil Molecular Life Sciences such as Molecular Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Molecular Physiology or Pharmacology together with relevant experience before taking up the appointment. The research requires established skills in tissue culture and previous working experience in differentiation, organelle biology, imaging and metabolism as well as transcriptomics would be desirable.
The fixed term post is currently available and will be based in The Department of Physiology Anatomy & Genetics, Sherrington Building, Sherrington Rd, Oxford OX1 3PT
Informal enquiries may be directed to the DPAG HR Team – [email protected]
The closing date for applications is midday on 19 July 2024 and interviews are likely to be held on the week commencing 29 July 2024
Applications are particularly welcome from women, black and minority ethnic candidates who are under-represented in academic posts in Oxford.
While this is a full-time role, we welcome applications from individuals who wish to be considered for part-time working or other flexible working arrangements.
We, as a Department and Community, will be considerate and welcoming of all people, regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, and socio-economic background. We acknowledge societal inequalities and how these impact us, and those around us, personally and professionally. – DPAG Statement of Inclusion
