Group Leader (Senior Research Associate)

Posted by , on 3 November 2014

Closing Date: 15 March 2021

The Gurdon Institute is a world-renowned centre in the fields of developmental, cell, and cancer biology, located in the heart of the historic city of Cambridge, and part of the University’s School of Biological Sciences. Founded in 1991, its purpose is to provide the best possible environment for research, and to foster interactions and collaborations between scientists with diverse but complementary interests. It is generously supported by core funding from the Wellcome Trust and Cancer Research UK, and benefits from state-of-the art facilities in a friendly, modern, purpose-built environment (see www.gurdon.cam.ac.uk).

We are seeking to recruit one or more new Group Leaders, and we are particularly interested in early career applicants who meet the eligibility criteria for Sir Henry Dale (or similar) Fellowships. This would be an ideal position for a scientist wishing to take up his or her first position as an independent researcher, and offers a generous start up package and a world-class platform for career development.

The Group Leader will establish and run their own lab, leading an independent research programme, creating a strong track record of publishing high impact papers, applying for funding, and training and supervising both postdocs and students. Their scientific interests will be in the fields of developmental biology and/or cancer, and complementary to those of existing Gurdon Institute group leaders.

The person appointed will be expected to have a PhD, an outstanding publication record, have completed successful postdoctoral research training and be well on the way to establishing themselves as an internationally recognised expert in their field.

Informal enquiries are invited and can be directed to any of the Institute’s Group Leaders or emailed to glsearch@gurdon.cam.ac.uk.  To apply please use the link: http://www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/5286/
