Salary: From £31,675 for LRS or £39,950 for SLRS - Salary range will depend on skills and experience. Short summary Experimental Histopathology (EHP) is a Science Technology Platform (STP) within the Crick, providing a comprehensive and interactive centre for the histology-based analysis of experimental tissues and human bio resources/clinical trials, with the aim of relating experimental models to the pathology of human disease. The purpose of this post is to provide comprehensive support in the operations of the EHP STP. The post responsibilities include shared responsibility for the smooth running and efficient operation of the EHP STP via the implementation of established in-house histology-based techniques and workflows, operation of instruments, general laboratory organisation and interaction with other members of the STP and Crick researchers. The post holder will also be required to investigate and develop new technologies to enhance the capabilities of the STP. The post-holder will work in the Experimental Histopathology STP, providing advice, training, and expertise in a range of techniques to analyse cells and tissues from experimental models and human tissue. Key Responsibilities Exemplifying and maintaining standards for the service Supporting and contributing to existing projects through effectively and efficiently performing established techniques Conducting experimental work autonomously and by own initiative on projects as agreed with the deputy and STP Lead Operating as a technical specialist in histology-based techniques Interacting and consulting collaboratively with researchers to help plan experiments Liaising with other members of the EHP team; actively supporting and training team members to develop their skills and promote collective success Providing specialised training to researchers, visitors, and other Crick staff as required Using knowledge to build on existing methodologies and innovate through identification, assessment and development of new technologies, to expand the capabilities of the facility under guidance of STP Deputy and Lead About us The Francis Crick Institute is a biomedical discovery institute dedicated to understanding the fundamental biology underlying health and disease. Its work is helping to understand why disease develops and to translate discoveries into new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat illnesses such as cancer, heart disease, stroke, infections, and neurodegenerative diseases. An independent organisation, its founding partners are the Medical Research Council, Cancer Research UK, Wellcome, UCL, Imperial College London and King’s College London. The Crick was formed in 2015, and in 2016 it moved into a new state-of-the-art building in central London which brings together 1500 scientists and support staff working collaboratively across disciplines, making it the biggest biomedical research facility under in one building in Europe. The Francis Crick Institute will be world-class with a strong national role. Its distinctive vision for excellence includes commitments to collaboration; developing emerging talent and exporting it the rest of the UK; public engagement; and helping turn discoveries into treatments as quickly as possible to improve lives and strengthen the economy.
