Tenure Track Junior Group Leaders, King’s College London

The Centre for Craniofacial & Regenerative Biology invites applications for tenure-track junior group leader positions. Applicants should be early career scientists who meet the eligibility criteria for career development fellowships. We are seeking to recruit outstanding early career investigators who will make significant contributions to areas related to craniofacial and regenerative biology and have excellent potential to develop an internationally competitive research programme.

We are particularly interested in proposals using computational and human genetics approaches to understand craniofacial development, regeneration and disease and those bridging the gap between developmental biology and innovative biomaterials and nanotechnology. The Centre for Craniofacial and Regenerative Biology offers a stimulating environment to pursue interdisciplinary research.

Successful candidates are expected to establish their independent research group in the Centre supported by a fellowship and will then progress to a tenured post upon completion of the fellowship, subject to a satisfactory progress review. This is an excellent opportunity to join a vibrant and interdisciplinary research community at King’s College London.

Successful applicants will be provided with office and laboratory space, access to state-of-the-art core facilities, access to a variety of PhD programmes as well as mentorship and career development opportunities. Depending on the research programme, in addition to the primary Centre appointment candidates can have a secondary appointment with other Centres in the Faculty or at King’s.

To apply send a cover letter, your curriculum vitae including the contact details for three referees and a two-page research proposal to Ms Angela Gates (CCRB, angela.gates@kcl.ac.uk). For informal enquiries please contact Professor Andrea Streit (CCRB, andrea.streit@kcl.ac.uk).
