At Leicester we’re going places. As a leading University in Britain our aim is to climb further. A commitment to high quality fused with an inclusive academic culture is our hallmark and led the Times Higher Education to describe us as “elite without being elitist”.

In this position you will be independently undertaking research towards the objectives of the project outlined in the further particulars. It will also involve integrating into a team of scientists including the day-to-day supervision of a technician and cooperation with PhD students and postdocs working on related projects. You will be responsible to Dr Jonathan McDearmid.

You will have a PhD in neuroscience or a related discipline and experience with patch clamp electrophysiology techniques is highly desirable.

Informal enquiries are welcome and should be made to Dr Jonathan McDearmid on jrm33@le.ac.uk or 0116 252 3913
