2 months ago


Oxford, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Single Molecule Biophysics to work under the supervision of Professor Madhavi Krishnan for a period of 12 months. The project involves work in the broad area of soft condensed matter at the nanometer scale and has a specific interest in measuring and understanding electrostatics in molecular-scale matter, e.g., biological macromolecules.

The experimental approaches used by the group centre around optical imaging and spectroscopy and nanofabrication techniques. The work also relies on theory and simulation, specifically focusing on numerical mean-field electrostatics calculations and Brownian Dynamics simulations.

You will be expected to manage your own academic research and administrative activities, this involves small scale project management, coordination multiple aspects of work to meet deadlines. You will also test hypothesis and analyses scientific data from a variety of sources, reviewing and refining hypothesis as required.

The post will be based in the Department of Chemistry, Chemistry Research Laboratory, 12 Mansfield Road, OX1 3TA and is available as soon as possible.
