Canary Wharf, Greater London, United Kingdom Queen Mary University of London Full time

About the Role

A Postdoctoral Research Assistant position is available at Queen Mary University of London to work with Dr Nikola Ojkic. The position is funded by a BBSRC project entitled 'Alteration in bacterial cell envelope structure as the mechanism of antibiotic resistance and cell death', with a focus on understanding how antibiotics kill bacterial cells and how antibiotic-resistant bacteria emerge.

This project aims to use imaging, image analysis, mathematical modelling, and stochastic molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the physical mechanism of how antibiotic treatments lead to bacterial cell death. The post-holder will join a multidisciplinary team with frequent meetings, interactions, and high-quality mentoring.

About You

The ideal candidate will have a PhD in physics, biophysics, mathematics, bioengineering, bioinformatics, or computational science, with significant experience in programming. Past experience in handling large datasets, stochastic simulations, image analysis, and mathematical modelling will be highly desirable.

We are looking for a motivated individual who can work independently and as part of a team, willing to learn new experimental and computational techniques. Candidates should have a track record of publications, excellent communication skills, and the ability to manage and prioritise their time effectively.
