Post doctoral Research Assistant (Grade 5)
A Postdoctoral Research Assistant position is available at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) in the group of Dr Viji Draviam to work on how human cells maintain chromosome numbers. This particular research position will focus on the characterisation of the molecular mechanism by which human cells capture chromosomes along the lateral walls of microtubules and how these laterally bound chromosomes are transported to the ends of microtubules. The project will use a combination of high-resolution cell biology and molecular biology techniques.
