MRC  Research ScientistGenetically encoded neuroactive compoundsFixed-Term, 3 years£36,631 – £39,472 pa inclusiveLondon, UK

Applications are invited for a 3-year  research position at the MRC London Institute of Medical Sciences (LMS) at Imperial College London (http://lms.mrc.ac.uk/).

We have developed new technology for high-throughput behavioural screening and quantitative phenotyping that we are now using to discover neuroactive compounds in natural products and to repurpose existing drugs to treat Mendelian diseases.

This position would give you access to unique screening technology and a group of interdisciplinary colleagues who work together on behaviour assays, instrument development, software, and data analysis.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and creative scientist with a PhD and an interest in behaviour, animal-microbe interactions, synthetic biology, and/or neuropharmacology.

Other members of the team have backgrounds in genetics, physics, neuroscience, and engineering. Your particular path is less important than your desire to learn and work on interesting problems.

The Behavioural Genomics lab is a friendly interdisciplinary team headed by Dr André Brown in the Quantitative Biology section of the LMS.
