1. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The AMBER consortium was created to address frontier bioscience and includes four research centres and three large-scale research infrastructures. The Leicester Institute for Structural and Chemical Biology (LISCB) is proud to be a part of this consortium and will be contributing to collaborative projects on cell imaging, epigenetics and cellular fate, metalloenzyme mechanisms and biocatalysis, enzyme mechanisms and regulatory processes inside the nucleus, and time-resolved imaging of enzymatic mechanisms.
Application Deadline: 06 Sep 2024
2. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The project aims to provide a robust evidence base to optimise care pathways and outcomes for family carers of people living with Motor Neurone Disease. This research is important as family carers often undertake managerial care helping the person access and communicate with health and social care professionals and seeking help when unexpected symptom occur. They report their ‘expert’ understanding their relative or friend’s needs is not fully considered, and their own needs are rarely assessed.
