**Research Fellow in Cryo-EM Sample Preparation**:
**Are you an ambitious researcher looking for your next challenge? Do you have an established background in cryo-EM? Do you want to further your career in one of the UKs leading research intensive Universities?**

Although there have been significant developmental steps in hardware and software for single particle cryo-EM, sample preparation is still dominated by approaches developed long before the “resolution revolution” which although appropriate for some proteins are not sufficient for others. Moreover, despite recent developments in the use of direct deposition technologies we lack an understanding of the influences that occur during sample preparation. Therefore, the overarching aim of this project is to provide a detailed understanding of the factors that influence protein behaviour and stability in the thin film environment formed during cryo-EM sample preparation and devise evidence-based solutions and robust protocols, applicable over a range of sample types.
