A fantastic opportunity to join the Radford and Ranson Laboratories here at the Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology in Leeds. This post-doc project is to investigate how proteins aggregate into amyloid fibrils, and how fibrils with different structure perturb cellular function. This BIRAX-funded role is to use cryoEM, supported with other biochemical and biophysical analyses, to understand the structure of amyloid fibrils formed in vitro and purified from patient samples and to determine the activity of different fibril types in causing neuronal dysfunction.
Please come and join our amazing team in one of the most popular cities in the UK. Closing date Friday 22 November 2024.
Other posts in cryoEM amyloid will be coming up soon for 2025 start dates, so if you’re interested in joining us, please get in touch for a chat and more details.
