We are always interested in receiving applications to join our group from highly qualified and talented candidates wishing to carry out their Part III, Masters, PhD or Postdoctoral research with us. Joining us means having the opportunity to work in a friendly and engaging research group and partake in highly relevant and top-quality science. The research group is located within Cambridge University, which has been the home to some of the world's greatest minds. Its rich academic history, paired with with a beautiful location makes it an excellent place to perform research.
