Led by a world-class faculty of scientists, technologists, policy makers, economists and entrepreneurs, the Ellison Institute of Technology aims to develop and deploy commercially sustainable solutions to solve some of humanity's most enduring challenges. Our work is guided by four Humane Endeavours: Health, Medical Science & Generative Biology, Food Security & Sustainable Agriculture, Climate Change & Managing Atmospheric CO2 and Artificial Intelligence & Robotics.
Set for completion in 2027, the EIT Campus in Littlemore will include more than 300,000 sq ft of research laboratories, educational and gathering spaces. Fuelled by growing ambition and the strength of Oxford's science ecosystem, EIT is now expanding its footprint to a 2 million sq ft Campus across the western part of The Oxford Science Park. Designed by Foster + Partners led by Lord Norman Foster, this will become a transformative workplace for up to 7,000 people, with autonomous laboratories, purpose-built laboratories including a plant sciences building and dynamic spaces to spark interdisciplinary collaboration.
The Materials & Devices for Life Sciences (MDLS) Institute at the Ellison Institute of Technology (EIT) is advancing human health by scaling interdisciplinary science at the interface of biology and engineering. Building on the breakthrough of protein nanopore technology that revolutionised genomics, the MDLS institute is expanding this approach to detect a wider range of biological molecules, including volatiles in human breath. In parallel, the Institute is developing state-of-the-art methods that integrate living tissues with synthetic scaffolds to model and repair organs. These efforts converge across three interrelated programmes; Nanopore Sensing and Sequencing, 3D Tissue Construction, and Device Engineering to create next-generation technologies that translate discovery into clinical impact.
EIT Oxford fosters a culture of collaboration, innovation, and resilience, valuing diverse expertise to drive sustainable solutions to humanity's enduring challenges.
We are seeking ambitious and creative Postdoctoral Research Scientists to join the Materials & Devices for Life Sciences (MDLS) Institute at EIT Oxford. Our research focuses on developing nanopore technologies and powerful new devices to transform clinical and personal diagnostics, and the scalable development of personalised therapeutics through the exploration of both synthetic tissue-like materials and living tissues prepared by 3D printing.
MDLS brings together molecular sciences, nanotechnology, and bioengineering to create transformative materials and tools for the biomedical sciences. We are recruiting Postdoctoral Research Scientists to advance these efforts across a broad range of areas, including:
- Nanopore technologies for small-molecule diagnostics
- Single-molecule technologies for biopolymer analysis
- Programmable membrane proteins for nanoscale transport and sensing
- Precision biomolecule processing for single-molecule technologies
- 3D tissue engineering with stem cells
- Synthetic and hybrid tissue engineering
- Versatile nanopore devices for sensing, sequencing, and beyond
- Devices for advanced tissue engineering
As a Postdoctoral Research Scientist, you will design and conduct experiments addressing fundamental technological challenges, lead the development and refinement of emerging technologies, contribute to impactful scientific publications, and actively support the mentorship of junior researchers. Working at the intersection of chemistry, biology, physics, and engineering, you will play an integral role in shaping MDLS's evolving vision to redefine the possibilities of biotechnology.
MDLS offers a dynamic, collaborative, and well-resourced environment, with access to advanced instrumentation, fabrication facilities, and an ecosystem of allied institutes working at the interface of technology and life sciences. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a research programme that is technique-agnostic, impact-driven, and unafraid to push boundaries.

- Skill in data analysis and interpretation, with experience in one or more of the following areas desirable: single-molecule techniques, protein engineering, bioorganic chemistry, stem cell and tissue culture, microfluidics, device design and fabrication, or computational modelling and analysis.
- Proven ability to work independently, think creatively, and solve complex experimental problems.
- Strong troubleshooting skills with the ability to identify and resolve challenging technical issues.
- Broad understanding of current developments in relevant fields and the ability to identify promising directions for future research and technology development.
- Innovative thinking with a proactive approach to problem-solving and scientific discovery.
- Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple concurrent projects.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with experience of collaboration in multidisciplinary teams.
- Capacity to build and sustain productive collaborations internally and externally.
- Resilience, adaptability, and enthusiasm for working in a fast-paced, high-growth research environment.
