Full time
Senior Research Assistant Salary: £36,540 - £45,350 per annum depending on qualifications and experience Contract: 72 months, full time Location: John Innes Centre, Norwich, UK Closing date: 12th March 2026 Reference: About the John Innes Centre The John Innes Centre is an independent, international centre of excellence in plant and microbial genetics, carrying out fundamental and strategic research, training scientists and making our findings available to society. We pride ourselves on being a welcoming and inclusive working environment for all, and we hold a prestigious Athena SWAN Gold award, are a Stonewall Diversity Champion, and a Disability Confident employer. About the Whitewoods Group The Whitewoods lab investigates how plants pattern their internal leaf structure, primarily using Arabidopsis thaliana as a model system. They investigate how leaves form air spaces between cells, how photosynthetic cells acquire their identities, and how changes in light level modify these developmental processes to tune leaf structure to the environment. The Role In this role you will be responsible for the day to day operational effectiveness of the group's research, as well as designing and performing experiments and analysing data. A key part of this role is performing mutant screens and organising mutant populations to identify and catalogue novel mutants. It therefore requires excellent attention to detail. The Ideal Candidate Candidates must have a background in plant science; a PhD in developmental biology or related fields is highly advantageous. Expertise in care and management of Arabidopsis thaliana is necessary, as is experience with performing EMS mutagenesis and organising a forward genetic screen. Experience with molecular biology, confocal microscopy and histology are also preferred, alongside a willingness and ability to learn and work with new methodologies and different species. The successful applicant will be a strong team player, highly solution oriented, self motivated, with excellent interpersonal skills, the ability to work independently and collaboratively, and outstanding record keeping.
