Seeking a creative and team-oriented Postdoctoral Researcher to uncover the cellular and physiological basis of Arp2/3 diversity.

We are seeking a motivated and creative Postdoctoral Researcher to carry out research in cell and tissue biology to elucidate the physiological consequences of Arp2/3-driven actin network diversity.

You will be involved in the dissection of the roles of Arp2/3 subunit isoform diversity on muscle fibre development using imaging technologies including FIB-SEM and correlative light and electron microscopy methods.

This work will be undertaken as part of the research team led by Prof Carolyn Moores, and is funded by a European Research Council Synergy Grant in collaboration with Michael Way (The Francis Crick Institute, London) and Edgar Gomes (IMM, Lisbon).

This project represents an exciting opportunity to uncover the multiple hierarchies at which diversity of the Arp2/3 complex operate and will involve close collaborative interactions, use of facilities and visits between all three groups to achieve our ambitious goal.

You will be a member of a team working on regulatory mechanisms of cytoskeleton dynamics (https:// www. bbk.ac.uk/biology/our- staff/academic/carolyn-moores) and will interact with members of the Institute of Structural and Molecular Biology (ISMB) Electron Microscopy group https:// www. ismb.lon.ac.uk/electron-microscopy/). You will also have access to imaging facilities at The Francis Crick Institute.

Applicants should have a PhD in bioimaging, cell biology or a related area, and have relevant research publications.

Remuneration:

Grade 7 of the College's London Pay Scale which is £41,348 rising to £47,118 per annum.

The salary quoted is on the College's London Pay Scale which includes a consolidated Weighting/Allowance which applies only to staff whose normal contractual place of work is in the London area
