About the Project

The Baldock laboratory is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellow to study the molecular organisation and function of fibrillin-integrin interactions using cutting-edge structural biology approaches.

This project will utilise cryo-electron microscopy to investigate how integrin engagement and downstream signalling response varies on fibrillin substrates of different stiffness.

The successful candidate will build on previous research in the Baldock lab, which has characterised the structure and interactions of fibrillin and fibrillin microfibrils.

About the Role

We are looking for a talented individual with a PhD in biochemistry or a related biological science, and experience in cell-matrix structural biology.

The successful candidate will be responsible for designing and conducting experiments, analysing data, and contributing to the development of the project.

Working with Us

The Baldock laboratory is based in the Wellcome Centre for Cell-Matrix Research, which provides an outstanding environment for conducting high-quality research.

The University of Manchester is an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from all sections of the community.

We are also positive about flexible working and offer hybrid working arrangements.

What We Offer

The position offers a range of benefits, including a market-leading pension scheme, excellent employee health and wellbeing services, and exceptional annual leave entitlement.
