The successful applicant will be based at City St George’s University London (Tooting Campus) working in the Lymphovascular Research group. The post holder will be involved in the development of novel tools to build our understanding of the impact of Primary Lymphoedema-associated EPHB4 receptor tyrosine kinase variants on the downstream signalling cascades and their molecular and cellular consequences.
The post holder will have a PhD in cell biology and/or molecular biology and ideally with proven track record in the fields of biomedical research, rare diseases or vascular/lymphovascular sciences. Post-doc experience preferentially in the fields of lympho-vascular research or gene expression regulation is desirable. A good understanding of the lymphatic system biology and function will be highly valuable. An academic interest and initiative which allows for development of the lymphatic molecular genetics programme at CSG will be advantageous.
