Descripción del empleo

Job description: Be part of ground-breaking research that is pushing the boundaries of materials science and turning innovative discoveries into real-world opportunities.

We are seeking a researcher with substantial postdoctoral experience. You will work within a highly skilled, interdisciplinary team of researchers, leading research into protein characterisation using advanced microscope-based spectroscopic techniques, and perform electron microscopy (SEM, TEM) for other areas of the project. This role is part of an Advanced Research + Invention Agency-funded project.

This role will provide cross-cutting research for the key aims of the project through advanced electron microscopy (scanning and transmission electron microscopy, spectroscopic techniques), alongside leading commercialisation opportunities for the work. You will be instrumental in directing the overall success of the project, contributing practical research alongside reporting, dissemination. If you are passionate about pioneering scientific innovation and translating cutting-edge research into tangible impact, this is an exciting opportunity to make your mark!
