Research scientists
To join the ICR you’ll be a talented scientist looking for the next step after your initial postdoctoral studies. You’ll be ready to start leading a team independently under the mentorship of a leading senior scientist.
Research teams also include staff scientists and a number of specialist research roles such as bioinformaticians. Some senior staff scientists may run part of a team, specialise in a particular area of research within a team or work as part of a scientific service.
Our Heads of Division will be pleased to have an informal chat – you can find their contact details on our Division pages.
What we offer
As an integral part of the ICR’s faculty, you’ll receive additional start-up support (typically a postdoctoral researcher and one PhD student) and the help you need to find your feet and recruit your new team.
You will receive dedicated support in gaining further grant funding and establishing your own programme of independent research as you make the journey towards joining our permanent Faculty.
You will also have access to support networks, mentoring, career development opportunities and tailored training.
We support our scientists with state-of-the-art platform technologies and expert facilities staff, providing cutting-edge facilities for microscopy, imaging, sequencing, proteomics, X-ray crystallography and much more.
