We are looking for a motivated, enthusiastic and collaborative researcher to join the School of Life Sciences and contribute to an exciting ERC (UKRI Frontier Science project) exploring the unique and rapid cell division events that occur during Plasmodium male gamete formation and transmission stages within mosquitoes. You will join a friendly and highly skilled research community based at the Queen’s Medical Centre, working closely with Prof. Rita Tewari and colleagues in a supportive and dynamic environment.

This role offers the opportunity to work at the forefront of parasite cell biology, using cutting‑edge genetic and imaging approaches to understand the regulation of cell division during malaria transmission. You will investigate divergent protein kinases involved in cell cycle and novel proteins using conditional gene modulation systems (CRISPR‑Cas9, AID, DiCre) and advanced cell biology techniques to generate and analyse functional data.

You will plan and conduct your own research, contribute to collaborative projects, and play an active role in shaping research objectives. You will also build internal and external connections, working closely with senior technical staff to coordinate parasite material and data management.

Training and supporting undergraduate and postgraduate researchers will form part of your contribution to the wider laboratory community, alongside maintaining good laboratory practice and accurate record keeping. You will stay well informed of relevant literature and contribute to the dissemination of findings through manuscript preparation and presentation of results.

This is a full-time position (36.25 weekly hours) on a fixed term basis starting from 01/07/2026 for 18 months with an end date of 31 December 2027.

For further information, please contact: Prof. Rita Tewari ([email protected]) or David Guttery ([email protected]). Please note that applications sent directly to these Email addresses will not be accepted.
