Crynodeb
As a Senior Scientist at the Franklin, you will lead a major independent research programme, bringing a track record of productivity, expertise and experience and a growing international reputation in a relevant area of research/technology. You will have the ability to maintain strong external collaborations that enhance the science of the Franklin. This role, as part of the senior scientific team, will ensure that the Franklin is internationally leading and has a sustainable financial model. The role will also support the development of a collegial, open culture, research integrity and ethical practice. You will also mentor the development of junior staff as required, supervise students and support aspect(s) of management of the Institute.
Within Multidimensional Imaging, a major focus is in developing electron Ptychography and related phasing methods under low fluence conditions with applications to the characterisation of biological materials at high spatial resolution. The development of new imaging modes will also require new acquisition and computational processing techniques, and you will work closely with the theory and algorithmics project group. Ultimately, we aim to expand these techniques into time resolved studies to explore the dynamics of biological systems.
We are equipped with a double aberration corrected 300kV Cryo (S)TEM, a further 300kV conventional Cryo TEM and a cryo Dual beam FIB. In mid-2025 we will install a 300kV chromatically corrected instrument. To support these, we have a range of cryo and liquid cell sample holders and extensive sample preparation facilities. These instruments have novel optical configurations with various novel detectors and fluence controlling deflectors and programmable scanning systems.
The post holder will report to Professor Angus Kirkland, Science Director and to Dr Judy Kim, Deputy Challenge Lead and will form part of the leadership team within the Multidimensional Imaging Challenge area.
Before submitting your application, please ensure you read the Job Information Pack for full details of this role on our website.
The Rosalind Franklin Institute is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and welcomes applications from all. This job description set outs the skills and experience we believe are needed to be able to do this job but, research also tells us women are much more likely than men to take this list of requirements as absolute and self-select out of the process. If you think you can deliver this role then we want to hear from you, regardless of the boxes you did not tick.
At the Rosalind Franklin Institute we welcome applications from all around the world!
To be considered for this role, please submit a CV (to include full list of publications) and cover letter explaining why you think you are the right person for this job. Please including information about your education and work experience.
We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where every applicant has an equal opportunity to showcase their talents and abilities. This includes making adjustments for candidates with specific needs. Please contact us at recruitment@rfi.ac.uk to discuss your requirements confidentially.
Closing date: Please be aware that applications are accepted on an ongoing basis until the position is filled; therefore, we reserve the right to close this vacancy as soon as we attract the right number of applicants.
