Level: Postdoctoral

Fellowship Description: A 3-year postdoctoral research position, funded by the MRC, is available from January 2011 in the laboratory of Dr Claudia Linker at the Randall Division of Cell and Molecular Biophysics, King’s College London.

The primary aim of our research is to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underling the migration and differentiation of neural crest cells. The project combines genetics tools, offered by zebrafish transgenic lines, with live cell imaging to study the role of Notch signalling during neural crest migration. The newly generated MAZe line (Nat Methods. 2010 Mar;7(3):219-23) will be used to analyse this question at the single cells level.

We are seeking an enthusiastic, motivated and hard working scientist who holds, or will shortly be awarded, a PhD degree in a relevant biomedical discipline. A strong background in cell or developmental biology is required. Experience with zebrafish, molecular biology and live cell imaging techniques are an advantage. Good communication skills and the ability to work as part of a team is essential.

The appointment will be made on the Grade 6 scale, £33,070 per annum, inclusive of £2323 London Allowance, per annum. Benefits include an annual season ticket loan scheme and a final salary superannuation scheme.

Fellowship Application Deadline: 14/11/2010

    wonderful post, very informative. I wonder why the other experts of this sector do not notice this. You should continue your writing. I am confident, you’ve a huge readers’ base already!

  2. I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your website? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
