The Francis Crick Institute Limited invites applications for a Crick Joint PhD project led by Alessandro Costa and Sergi Garcia-Manyes. The project explores mechanically unfolded proteins using single-molecule nanomechanics, microfluidics, and cryo-EM to capture structures of force-stretched proteins and uncover mechanotransduction mechanisms.

Candidates should have a Biochemistry/Biophysics/Physical Chemistry background and an interest in protein mechanics, structure, and mechanobiology.
