£44,105 - £46,421 per annum, including London Weighting Allowance

United Kingdom, London

About Us

The Basant group, funded by a grant from the Wellcome Trust, seeks to understand how tyrosine phosphatases regulate cell signalling. This large family of enzymes has been highly understudied compared to its kinase counterpart. We investigate these phosphatases in the context of signalling to the actin cytoskeleton and in virus-infected cells.

About the role

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research associate position in Dr. Angika Basant’s group at the Randall Centre for Cell and Molecular Biophysics, King’s College London.

 

The researcher appointed will focus on candidate phosphatases that have been validated to regulate actin dynamics during infection with the poxvirus Vaccinia. How do these phosphatases function, what are their key interactors, how do they recognise substrates, how do they impact signalling dynamics and outputs? The broader goal is to contextualise these findings in uninfected cells and, with the help of a collaborator, in other viral infections. The researcher appointed will take advantage of, and further develop, a Vaccinia virus-based signalling platform, as well as cutting-edge molecule counting and optogenetics tools available in the lab. Experience in phosphatase biology, microscopy, cell signalling or biochemistry is desirable but not mandatory.

A PhD in a relevant discipline is required (or applicant to be near completion). A high-quality publication record and effective science communication skills are essential. International applicants are welcome.

 

Please reach out to Dr. Angika Basant (angika.basant@kcl.ac.uk) for informal discussions. The formal selection process will include an interview, which may be conducted in stages (online or in-person).

 

This is a full time post, and you will be offered a fixed term contract until 21 July 2027.

About You

To be successful in this role, we are looking for candidates to have the following skills and experience:

 

Essential criteria


	PhD qualified in relevant subject area*
	Strong track record in a key subject area such as cell signalling, cytoskeleton or similar
	Excellent experimental skills and strong ability to lead project design and management
	An enthusiasm for the research questions being addressed in the lab
	Strong communication skills both in writing and for oral presentation
	Collegiality and ability to work well in a research team
	Ability to work independently, take initiative, learn new skills and troubleshoot technical problems
	Scientific rigor and integrity, and good practice in health and safety procedures 


*  Please note that this is a PhD level role but candidates who have submitted their thesis and are awaiting award of their PhDs will be considered. In these circumstances the appointment will be made at Grade 5, spine point 30 with the title of Research Assistant. Upon confirmation of the award of the PhD, the job title will become Research Associate and the salary will increase to Grade 6.

 

Desirable criteria


	Experience in supervision and teaching of other researchers
	Knowledge of phosphatase biology and/or phosphotyrosine signalling
	Experience in biochemistry and/or proteomics
	Experience in microscopy


Further Information

We pride ourselves on being inclusive and welcoming. We embrace diversity and want everyone to feel that they belong and are connected to others in our community.

 

We are committed to working with our staff and unions on these and other issues, to continue to support our people and to develop a diverse and inclusive culture at King's.

We ask all candidates to submit a copy of their CV, and a supporting statement, detailing how they meet the essential criteria listed in the advert. If we receive a strong field of candidates, we may use the desirable criteria to choose our final shortlist, so please include your evidence against these where possible.

 

To find out how our managers will review your application, please take a look at our ‘ How we Recruit’ pages.
