The Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) trains doctors who put patients at the centre of their exemplary care. The School, which offers both undergraduate and graduate programmes, is named after local philanthropist Tan Sri Dato Lee Kong Chian. Established in 2010 by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, in partnership with Imperial College London, LKCMedicine aims to be a model for innovative medical education and a centre for transformative research. The School’s primary clinical partner is the National Healthcare Group, a leader in public healthcare recognised for the quality of its medical expertise, facilities and teaching. The School is transitioning to an NTU medical school ahead of the 2028 successful conclusion of the NTU-Imperial partnership to set up a Joint Medical School. In August 2024, we welcomed our first intake of the NTU MBBS programme, that has been recently enhanced to include themes like precision medicine and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare, with an expanded scope in the medical humanities. Graduates from the five-year undergraduate medical degree programme will have a strong understanding of the scientific basis of medicine, with an emphasis on technology, data science and the humanities.
Our lab is built on _diversity_, _mutual respect_, _teamwork_, and _collaboration_, with a special emphasis on providing _mentorship_ for young talent, including students and postdocs. The key objective is to support efforts to study the general principles of cellular lipid homeostasis and how they are used by neurons to control brain function.
Key Responsibilities:
- Perform experiments, document results, and analyze data and carry out an independent research project.
- Assist purchasing of equipment, materials and consumables and provide general supports for the lab.
- Keep a log of lab materials as necessary (e.g. cell lines, plasmid DNAs, proteins and other essential reagents).
- Attend a weekly lab meeting and bi-weekly journal club and present data and/or papers as necessary.
Key Requirements:
- The incumbent should have a Bachelor’s in any relevant field of cell biology, biochemistry, _C. elegans_ genetics or other life sciences.
- The incumbent should have at least 3 years of previous research experience or laboratory training, including experience in a final year project.
- Prior knowledge in cell biology and microscopy is required. Experimental skills in molecular biology, biochemistry or light microscopy will be adding an advantage.
- Be able to work independently and collaborate effectively in a highly diverse and interdisciplinary team.
- Self-motivated and well-organized with good communication and technical skills.
