We are looking for a Research Fellow to lead structural investigations of protein amyloids derived from microalgae biomass. The role will focus on establishing sequence–structure relationships in artificial and functional amyloids using advanced cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Responsible for designing and conducting experimental workflows to isolate, characterize, and structurally resolve amyloid proteins from selected microalgae species.

  • Formulate, devise, and improve protocols for cryo-EM grid preparation, high-resolution imaging, and NMR data acquisition/analysis.

  • Perform bioinformatic sequence analysis to guide experimental design and correlate protein sequence features with amyloid assembly properties.

  • Collaborate with PI, postdocs, and students to integrate structural biology data with biochemical and functional assays.

  • Prepare manuscripts, conference presentations, and contribute to grant reporting and project milestones.

  • Supervise/mentor junior researchers, FYP students, and graduate students involved in the project.

  • Maintain high standards of data integrity, laboratory safety, and research reproducibility.

Job Requirements:

  • PhD degree in Biochemistry or related field

  • At least 2 years of relevant experience.

  • Familiarity with structural biology and protein biochemistry.

  • Good written and oral communication skills

  • Proficiency in cryo-EM, NMR, biochemistry, protein purification.

  • Competent in information visualization, paper writing, conference presentations.

  • Ability to work independently

The College of Science seeks a diverse and inclusive workforce and is committed to equality of opportunity. We welcome applications from all and recruit on the basis of merit, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, marital status and family responsibilities, or disability.
