Applications are invited for a Research Assistant position in the Department of Biochemistry of the University of Cambridge, UK. The successful applicant will work to support the research activities in the laboratory of Prof. Pellegrini (https://www.bioc.cam.ac.uk/research/pellegrini ).

Previous research experience of protein expression in eukaryotic hosts, and/or CRISPR-based generation of mammalian cell lines, would be highly desirable.
