Outline of the project aimsYou will join the Webby group in the School of Life Sciences at Warwick University. We are a diverse group of interdisciplinary scientists who investigate the molecular mechanisms that underpin cell envelope maintenance in Gram-negative bacteria. Our research focuses on understanding how protein complexes assemble and cooperate to preserve the three-layered cell envelope structure, a process that is essential for bacterial survival. This work has broad implications for our understanding of bacterial physiology and the identification of novel therapeutic targets.As part of the team, you will support research by providing technical assistance across a wide range of experimental areas, including molecular biology, bacterial microbiology, and protein expression and purification. Your work will span multiple projects and contribute to downstream biochemical and biophysical analyses. You will collaborate closely with postdoctoral researchers, PhD students, and external partners, including structural biologists, microbiologists, and biochemists.In addition, you will help ensure the smooth day-to-day running of the lab. This will include responsibilities such as training new lab members, maintaining inventories, ordering consumables, and ensuring the group remains compliant with relevant health and safety regulations.About the research group:For more information about our lab visit
