Laboratory Manager / Research Assistant (Fixed Term)
The Cambridge Institute for Medical Research (CIMR) is recruiting an organised, good team-player with basic tissue culture skills to a Research Assistant/Lab Manager position. We seek individuals with at least a Bachelor's degree, good organisation skills, basic cell culture and cell biology experience who will manage a vibrant lab 50% of the time and assist research projects 50% of the time. The studies will mainly involve cell biology approaches and the successful applicant will work in the lab of Professor David Rubinsztein (Cambridge Institute for Medical Research; UK Dementia Research Institute).
Recent publications from the lab include: SJ Park, et al (2024). Nuclear proteasomes buffer cytoplasmic proteins during autophagy compromise. Nature Cell Biology 26:1691-1699; Y Zhu, et al.

This is a full-time post, however applications from those wishing to work part-time will be considered. If employed part-time, at least 18.5 hours (50% of full-time) would be on lab manager tasks and duties, with the remainder on research assistant tasks. Ideally, the working hours would be over 5 days (Monday-Friday) due to the operational demands of the laboratory.
