Positions Available
(New - June 2023!)
We have openings available immediately for postdoctoral scientists in the group to boost our efforts in targeted protein degradation and PROTAC design and drug discovery. The posts will be based under Dundee's new Centre for Targeted Protein Degradation (CeTPD). Find out more at https://www.dundee.ac.uk/cetpd/vacancies
Vacancies
We are always looking for talented, self-motivated and creative individuals with interest in targeted protein degradation and protein-protein interactions, and skills and expertise from a wide range of areas: from chemical synthesis and chemical biology, to structural cell biology, fragment-based drug discovery and computational chemistry. There are opportunities to work on a wide range of different projects as part of a multidisciplinary group in the Ciulli lab. Vacancies become available periodically, and these posts will be advertised here and here. However, the timescale for filling these vacancies can be short, so if you are planning a career that involves training and working with us, the best way to guarantee a place in the lab is to secure an independent postdoctoral fellowship. Links to some of the organisations that sponsor fellowships are provided below, but this list is not exhaustive, so it may be worth doing your own research.
