Oxford, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

The role is to carry out structural studies into integral proteins important for human biology, primarily using cryo-electron microscopy with the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences (NDCN) team, reporting to Yin Dong, University Lecturer.

Some of your duties will include carrying out administrative work that is necessary for the advancement of the project, record and store all experimental data and record all experimental details in paper and electronic lab notebooks. As well as attending weekly lab meetings and presenting findings at scientific conferences.

It is essential that you have a PhD/DPhil in structural biology, experience using viral protein expression methods and experience with cell culture, including mammalian cells in suspension.

It is desirable that you have experience working with heteromultimeric protein complexes and experience in electrophysiology.

Please see the below 'Job Description' for further details on the responsibilities and selection criteria, as well as further information about the university and how to apply.

**The post is full time for a fixed term until 31 May 2027 in the first instance.**

**Interviews will be held as soon as possible thereafter.
