Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom University of Cambridge Full time
Research Assistant in Cell Biology

We are seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic graduate research assistant to join our vibrant team investigating the cell biology of hereditary spastic paraplegias.

This project is based in the group of Professor Evan Reid at Cambridge Institute for Medical Research and is funded for 1 year. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work at the interface between cell biology and molecular neuroscience, focusing on functional genomic synthetic lethality screens using iPSC-derived neuronal models of HSP.

The lab employs an integrated approach that combines state-of-the-art cell biology, biochemistry, proteomics, functional genomics, and stem cell-derived neuronal modeling. We aim to produce high-quality research that impacts our field and stands the test of time.

Candidates must have experience in molecular cell biology or molecular neuroscience and a BSc in the biological, biochemical, or biomedical sciences. Previous research experience is highly desirable, especially in areas such as CRISPR-Cas genome editing, stem cell culture and neuronal differentiation, fixed or live cell immunofluorescence microscopy, and lentiviral delivery of RNA or DNA to cultured cells.

Applicants will work under the practical supervision of a postdoctoral researcher to achieve the aims of this project. They will be expected to work within a highly interactive group, have a friendly and collegiate outlook, good written and verbal communication skills, be well-organized, and able to work calmly to meet deadlines.

The University actively supports equality, diversity, and inclusion and encourages applications from all sections of society.
