Research Associate

We are seeking a highly motivated Research Associate, to join a British Heart Foundation funded programme of research that aims to investigate the mechanosensitive regulation of myocardial contractility and electrophysiology by microvascular endothelial cells using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes. **Duties and...

**Developing AI-ECG models for cardiovascular risk and mortality prediction** Through various collaborators worldwide, we have access to large quantities of digital ECGs (>2 million) recorded in clinical settings, in addition to >40000 digital ECGs from the UK Biobank linked to genetic and phenotypic data, which will allow us to train a range of AI-ECG...

Applications are invited for a Research Associate who will work under the direction of Professor Sadaf Ghaem-Maghami. The post is funded by Target Ovarian Cancer and it is aimed at recognising factors that determine whether ovarian tumour is immunogenic, depending on its genetic make-up. **Duties and responsibilities**: The post holder will carry out...

We are looking for a talented computational biologist / bioinformatician to join the Multiple Myeloma Research Group led by Professor Tassos KaradimitrisYou should be a highly motivated and creative Research Associate, or Assistant nearing PhD completion. The group’s research focus is on delineating transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms of oncogenesis...

You will join a collaborative team, working with Dr David Owen (a clinical molecular pharmacologist) and Dr Samuel Barnes (Senior Lecturer, focussing on homeostatic neural-circuit plasticity). The preclinical project involves using longitudinal 2-Photon in vivo imaging techniques to measure calcium mediated neuronal activity and cortical blood flow in...

The Section of Nutrition is a laboratory at the forefront of nutritional research in particular the study of the impact of food on metabolism and the relationship with health and disease. The lab is currently involved in research into obesity and appetite circuits and in developing a new understanding between diet, gastrointestinal metabolism, whole body...

A Research Associate position is available** **within the Petter Brodin laboratory, Department of Immunology, and Inflammation, at Imperial College London. The post is funded by the Academy of Medical Sciences (AMS) and deals with experimental and computational analyses of individual immune cells in healthy children from birth to adolescence and from...

**Duties and responsibilities**: - To take initiatives in the planning of research - To work in close collaboration with in-house and extramural researchers - To identify and develop suitable techniques for data analysis, integration and visualisation - To ensure the validity and reliability of data - To maintain accurate and complete records of all...

The post is funded by the EPSRC to combine the High-Speed Scanning Ion Conductance Microscope (HS-SICM) developed in the lab and epi-illumination Selective Plane Illumination light sheet microscope (eSPIM) that is developed in the laboratory of Professor David Klenerman, University of Cambridge. The Research Associate will be expected to combine and maintain...

The project uses preclinical models to screen the potential of non-invasive brain stimulation regimes known to induce neuronal plasticity in the fight against AD. It involves a combination of non-invasive brain stimulation in preclinical models capturing features of AD-related pathology, _in vivo_ 1- and 2-Photon structure/function micro-circuit imaging,...

We have an exciting opportunity to appoint a talented and ambitious post-doctoral research assistant to join our multidisciplinary 3-year collaborative project, funded by the Medical Research Council entitled: “_An integrative transethnic approach to identify novel functional genes in Parkinson's disease using in silico and in vivo...

Research in the Division of Neuroscience addresses mechanisms that underpin nervous system functions and diseases. Investigators in the Division are exploring these through combinations of neurophysiological, anatomical, molecular, cellular and computational approaches, using pre-clinical models and clinical studies. Exciting research developments have...

Neuroactive natural products have led to important drugs including anthelmintics and pharmaceuticals, but we have barely scratched the surface of what nature has to offer. How will we discover the next generation of neuroactive compounds? We have developed new technology for high-throughput behavioural screening and quantitative phenotyping that will enable...

AAV is a life-threatening multisystem disease characterized by necrotizing inflammation of small blood vessels and deleterious organ damage. Early disease control by targeted treatment has improved outcomes considerably, but the most important clinical challenge now is the recognition and control of flares. This project aims to delineate the immunological...

We are looking for two highly motivated and driven researchers with a PhD or equivalent and a strong background in molecular and/or cellular biology to join the research group led by Dr Aida Martinez-Sanchez within the section of Cell Biology and Functional Genomics at Imperial College London (ICL). Our lab is based at the Imperial Centre for Translational...

We focus on the role of key neural-circuit plasticity processes thought to be critical for healthy network function. To achieve this, we use preclinical mouse models and cutting-edge technologies including 1- and 2-Photon in vivo microscopy, electrophysiology, automated behavioural testing, single cell/nuclei transcriptomics, non-invasive brain stimulation,...

Veselkov's Lab is in search of a skilled and motivated Research Associate to work on projects centred around developing deep learning, reinforcement learning, and graph neural networks. The goal of these projects is to analyse multi-source imaging and omics data in the fields of cancer research and computational medicine. We are seeking a passionate...

Dementia is the greatest health challenge of our century._ To date there is no way to prevent it or even slow its progression, and there is an urgent need to fill the knowledge gap in our basic understanding of the diseases that cause it. The UK Dementia Research Institute (UK DRI) is the biggest UK initiative driving forward research to fill this...

Applications are invited for a Research Associate position within a project that strives to develop new methodologies to address the current gaps in our knowledge and lead to establishing a tool that will assess diet-induced non-communicable disease (NCD) risk. The project is funded by EU HORIZON and UKRI and titled "CoDiet: Combating diet related...
