**Who are we looking for?**

Queensland University of Technology (QUT) is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join School of Biomedical Sciences, Faculty of Health, Academic Division.

The primary purpose of the Postdoctoral Research Fellow position is to contribute to QUT’s research on peptide therapeutics and membrane biology as part of the Australian Research Council (ARC) Centre of Excellence for Innovations in Peptide and Protein Science (CIPPS, CE200100012 ) and as part of the ARC Discovery Project (DP220103549)

**Real world impact**

QUT is a major Australian university with a global outlook and a 'real world' focus. We are an ambitious and collaborative institution that seeks to equip our students and graduates with the skills they will need in an increasingly disrupted and challenged world.

The School of Biomedical Sciences provides innovative undergraduate degree programs in Medical Laboratory Science and Biomedical Science. Our Biomedical Science degree pathway also offers undergraduate students the option to enrol in double degrees with Law, Business and Mathematics. Teaching is carried out in contemporary learning spaces and laboratories, building on our reputation for emphasising the acquisition of practical skills as well as theoretical instruction.

Undergraduate students are also encouraged to engage in Work Integrated Learning and Vacation Research programs and gain further early experience in research through our postgraduate Honours program. The School also operates a postgraduate degree program in Diagnostic Genomics and has recently launched a new vertical degree, B. Biomedical Science/Master of Data Analytics. We are actively developing further postgraduate programs that bridge aspiring students to our research programs.

The School’s research program has undergone an extensive reorganisation, resulting in the launch of major Centres focused on the delivery of inter-disciplinary research programs. Our researchers and higher degree research students enjoy world class facilities across our own campus and collaborative research institutes, enabling our close alignment to healthcare, translational opportunities, and industry drivers. Our current areas of research strength include:
Cancer
Immunology and Infection Control
Genomics and Personalised Health
Microbiome Research

Our research is supported by close inter-Faculty collaboration with other major research strengths including data science, cell and tissue engineering, and biomedical technology.

These research areas contribute to specialty undergraduate teaching and development of a research-informed curriculum in Anatomical Sciences, Physiology, Cell and Molecular Biology, Human Biochemistry, and Infectious Diseases

**What you need to succeed**

You will demonstrate:

- Completion of a PhD in an area of Biochemistry/Biotechnology and/or relevant accumulated experience
- Demonstrated knowledge and lab skills in membrane biology (e.g. model and cell membranes) and/or in peptides (e.g. chemistry, activity and mechanism)
- Demonstrated lab skills in conducting experiments and analysing data employing biophysical techniques (e.g. flow cytometry, surface plasmon resonance, fluorescence spectroscopy)
- Demonstrated experience in mammalian cell culture and in developing/performing biological assays
- Demonstrated experience in writing/contributing to research publications and in presenting research findings.
- Communication and interpersonal skills, including the ability to work collaboratively and constructively in a team environment, and with a range of collaborators.
