Senior Research Officer

We are seeking a researcher with experience in basic cell/molecular biology techniques, organoids, blood/plasma handling and mouse experiments to join a dynamic laboratory to work on the development of new methods for cancer diagnostics. This project is devoted to pancreatic cancer, which is often diagnosed at a late stage. Therefore, there is a great need for novel assays to facilitate the early detection of the disease. We aim to develop a low-cost, non-invasive assay that can be used for patient screening and monitoring.
Traditional methods of cancer diagnostics are based on taking a piece of tissue (so-called tissue biopsies). We work on liquid biopsies, which is a less invasive method for cancer detection, based on the analysis of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from body fluids (e.g. blood plasma, urine). Liquid biopsies are increasingly used in the clinic, but the challenge of making them applicable to early cancer detection remains. The main issue is that in early stages of cancer, the majority of cfDNA in body fluids is not from cancer cells. Most current methods require for the analysis a significant fraction of cfDNA from tumour cells. Therefore, they are less suitable for early cancer detection when this fraction is very small – this is the problem that we aim to overcome in this project.
The School of Life Sciences (University of Essex) provides access to molecular biology facilities, tissue culture rooms, proteomics and bioimaging suites to carry out the research.
A full list of duties and responsibilities can be found within the job pack.
Skills and qualifications required
The successful candidate will hold a relevant doctoral level degree in Biological Sciences or related subjects.
You will have the ability and willingness to engage in knowledge exchange and outreach activities. You will complement and enhance the research project/department/school's education and research strengths and areas of planned development.
Experience of working in a cell and molecular biology laboratory, along with expertise with tissue handling and processing are essential to this post.
As part of the process and to be successful you will be required to demonstrate how your research has been impactful within and beyond the academic sphere, recognising the importance of this and the effect it will have on the University.
The University of Essex is a campus based University and all academic appointments are made with the expectation that you will be present on campus to fulfil the requirements of your position. At the time of a job offer, the possibility of hybrid working, will be discussed and considered on an individual basis, but you will be required to be based within the UK.
