Research Fellow
Job description
The Centre for Experimental Medicine is an interdisciplinary research centre which is committed to the highest quality scientific endeavour, with over 250 basic and clinical scientists working on site. Our mission is to understand the mechanisms of disease and use that understanding to develop innovative new treatments and therapies to improve patient
outcomes. We are based in Belfast in the award winning Wellcome-Wolfson Institute for Experimental Medicine.
The Research Fellow will be a highly productive, ambitious and collaborative member of the Infection Biology research team led by Prof Jose Bengoechea in the Centre for Experimental Medicine. The position will involve working as part of a MRC CiC-funded research programme that seeks to find compounds affecting the interplay between the human pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae and macrophages by interrogating a chemical library of FDA-approved drugs. The project, at the interphase of microbiology and immunology, will utilise high throughput methods, single cell level approaches, and is based in a highly collaborative team, carrying out basic research. The post is a senior role in the team and as such, successful applicants will have responsibilities in independent research, supervision, planning, day-to-day lab management, collaborations and outreach. The post is suited to a highly ambitious individual, preferably with previous postdoctoral experience, and is available for 1 year.
