Laboratory Research Scientist – Organ Morphodynamics lab

2 months ago


London, Greater London, United Kingdom The Francis Crick Institute Full time

Job Summary

This is a fixed-term Laboratory Research Scientist position in the Organ Morphodynamics Laboratory at The Francis Crick Institute. The successful candidate will contribute to developing novel tools and technologies for the lab and run their independent project(s). The role involves collaboration with other lab members and supporting ongoing projects.

The Research Group

The Organ Morphodynamics Laboratory is a highly interdisciplinary and collaborative team that combines quantitative imaging, transcriptomics, biophysics, genetics, and predictive theoretical modelling to answer fundamental questions driving organ morphogenesis. The lab aims to unravel the underlying mechanical, molecular, and geometric interactions that transform a developing heart from a simple epithelium into a highly intricate patterned organ.

The Role

The Laboratory Research Scientist will be responsible for contributing to other projects on a collaborative basis and leading their own project(s). This includes developing and establishing new tools and techniques, providing experimental or technical support to other lab members, and contributing to proof-of-concept studies at the initial stages of different projects.

Key Responsibilities

  • Contribute to other projects on a collaborative basis and lead their own project(s).
  • Develop and establish new tools and techniques, including generation and validation of zebrafish transgenic lines, HCR techniques, and antibody characterisation.
  • Provide experimental or technical support to other lab members.
  • Contribute to proof-of-concept studies at the initial stages of different projects.
  • Contribute to a productive and positive lab atmosphere.

Key Experience and Competencies

The post holder should embody and demonstrate our core Crick values: bold, imaginative, open, dynamic, and collegial. The essential qualifications include a higher education degree in Biological Sciences, Cell Biology, or Developmental Biology, practical laboratory experience, experience in microscopy imaging and image analysis, excellent molecular biology skills, and strong skills in organising and thorough record-keeping.

Desirable Qualifications

Experience in zebrafish embryological techniques and zebrafish gene editing techniques, advanced imaging techniques such as confocal microscopy, and a strong interest in pursuing independent research.
