Crick Institute in London invites applications for a PhD project exploring how kinesin motors organise microtubules during cell division. The project combines biochemical reconstitution, advanced fluorescence microscopy, cryo-EM and computational analysis to reveal how motor–complexes are regulated and assembled in space and time.
The student will learn to prepare motor–microtubule assemblies, observe interactions, and interpret structural data to understand motor conformations and regulatory
