An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Sheffield Institute for Translational Neuroscience (SITraN). SITraN is a purpose built research facility which was opened in November 2010 by Her Majesty the Queen and awarded the Queen’s Anniversary prize for higher education in 2020 in recognition of having made an outstanding positive impact in patient’s lives from Neuroscience research. We were also awarded the British Neuroscience Outstanding Contribution Award in 2022. The Institute houses clinical and basic scientists from the Division of Neuroscience and the primary focus is research into neurodegenerative disorders such as motor neurone disease (MND), Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease.
We are seeking an enthusiastic and experienced postdoctoral research associate to join an exciting translational research project to assess mechanisms of disease and potential new therapeutic approaches using in vitro model systems incorporating motor neuron, astrocyte, muscle co-cultures.
We build teams of people from different heritages and lifestyles from across the world, whose talent and contributions complement each other to greatest effect. We believe diversity in all its forms delivers greater impact through research, teaching and student experience.
