We are starting off 2024 with the exciting news that we have an open PDRA position in our group, fully funded by Alice’s UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship. This position would suit someone with an interest in single molecule microscopy, (bio)image analysis, DNA biophysics or therapeutic development.

Everyone is looking for great postdocs at the moment, so here's a little on who we are, who we're looking for and what I think we can offer:

We are a really close group, united by interests in open science, microscopy, DNA structure and bioimage analysis.
We work together as a group and with amazing collaborators to try and solve interesting problems at the interface of the physical and life sciences.
We believe in balancing our work and personal lives, and taking time to enjoy all that Sheffield and the Peak District has to offer.
We're looking for someone who is excited by our research and working with us to understand the role of DNA’s mechanical code in its interactions.
We don’t need you to have very specific skills which we can teach, but to have an open mind, an interest in DNA biophysics, open science and single molecule microscopy.
We're really happy to support you in applying for grants/fellowships/permanent roles - we have experience in all of these and will support you in doing so.

This position is for around 2.5 years (until 31 July 2026) with the potential for renewal if you're enjoying the role.

The job description is here, and please get in touch if you think you'd be interested in working as part of our team. If you don't have all the criteria, or aren't sure if this is the right job for you, let's have a chat and see!
