This is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow position at The University of Edinburgh, where you will work to uncover the cellular and molecular mechanisms of cardiac and vascular development and regeneration.

Your Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct lab experiments to assess the role of protein posttranslational modifications in in-vivo and in-vitro models of cardiac and vascular injury.
  • Develop and implement novel techniques to investigate cellular mechanisms.
  • Collaborate with a team of researchers to advance our understanding of cardiovascular biology.
  • Communicate research findings through publications and presentations.

Requirements:

  • Undergraduate degree in a relevant discipline (e.g. Biology, Biochemistry, Physiology, Pharmacology or similar) with relevant post-graduate research experience.
  • PhD or equivalent in cardiovascular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, physiology or a related discipline.
