Overview
We are able to support flexible working, including part-time work schedules, and will support visa applications for successful candidates and their families.
We are looking for creative and innovative scientists to establish independent research programmes in any area of biological, biomedical or clinical sciences, including relevant areas of physical, AI/computational or chemical sciences. An advanced degree (PhD or equivalent) and experience conducting research in a relevant field is required.
Early career group leaders (ECGLs) are the core of the Crick\'s faculty. We appoint ECGLs at a creative stage in their careers to develop innovative and ambitious research programmes. Crick core funding supports them to develop research programmes driven by curiosity, not by trends. ECGLs are appointed for 12 years. Towards the end of their time at the Crick, we help them to secure senior positions in the UK and elsewhere, providing support to relocate their research programme. The Crick is one of Europe\\\'s largest biomedical research institutes. By breaking down barriers between departments and disciplines, we are accelerating the discovery of fundamental biology processes behind health and disease. Central to our mission is developing collaborative and multidisciplinary approaches encompassing clinical, biological and physical sciences. Our research spans the scales from genes, systems and evolution, through molecules and cells, to tissues and organismal biology. Aiming to generate insights into human biology in health and disease, our programmes use interdisciplinary approaches and diverse model systems to address issues in areas that include but are not limited to:
Areas of focus include, but are not limited to:
