Postdoctoral Scientist

This role involves conducting research within the Neurobiology Division of the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology to understand the molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration, specifically focusing on alpha-synuclein filaments. The position requires developing methods to form these filaments in vitro, in cells, and in animals, utilizing techniques such as electron cryo-microscopy, immunoprecipitation, and mass spectrometry. The successful candidate will collaborate with internal and external groups to identify cofactors and analyze filament structures to advance disease understanding.
