Generative Biology Institute GBI is tackling the key challenges in making biology engineerable, and thereby unlocking the unrivalled power of biology for the benefit of humanity. GBI is part of the Ellison Institute of Technology, Oxford (EIT) and is led by founding Director Jason Chin. The vision of the Generative Biology Institute is to lay the foundations for engineering biology, and unlock its potential for good. To achieve this, we must overcome two key challenges. First, we need the ability to write in the natural language of biology, enabling the rapid and scalable synthesis of entire genomes with precision. Second, we must understand what to write - determining which DNA sequences will generate biological systems that perform the desired functions. Addressing these challenges will allow us to harness the full power of biology to create transformative solutions across health, agriculture, clean energy and more. GBI will have sustained and substantial funding to support the unique scale and ambition of its ground-breaking vision for engineering biology. GBI researchers will also be supported by cutting edge technology hubs including mass spectrometry, flow cytometry, sequencing, automation, imaging, and bioprocessing. GBI will also have access to substantial compute resources that can be leveraged to further accelerate progress, including scientific compute, bioinformatics, and machine learning. The environment at GBI will allow researchers to undertake ambitious, long term, collaborative research, and we will actively support the translation of research to commercial applications, where appropriate. The Generative Biology Institute will commence operations in a newly renovated bespoke space in the Oxford Science Park. The team will later move to a purpose made facility in the Oxford Science Park, currently under construction. Once complete, this state of the art facility will include more than 40,000 m of research laboratory and office space. It will house over 30 groups and up to 600 employees at scale, focused on solving the two critical challenges in making biology engineerable and applying the solutions to addressing the global challenges encapsulated in EIT's Humane Endeavors. Job Summary We are seeking ambitious, creative, and highly skilled Postdoctoral Researchers to join the Generative Biology Institute (GBI). This is your opportunity to be part of cutting edge research within an institute dedicated to engineering biology at an unprecedented scale. In this role you will support an internationally competitive research programme, leveraging GBI's exceptional facilities, sustained funding, and collaborative environment. You will design and execute experiments, contribute to high impact publications, and play a key role in the training and mentorship of junior researchers and students. Working at the interface of biology, technology, and engineering, you will help shape GBI's vision to reimagine what's possible in biology. Applications to Research Groups Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis by the specific research groups you select. On the application page, you will be asked to select up to three (3) research groups you wish to apply to. In your cover letter, please clearly identify the group(s) you are applying to and explain your fit, interest, and relevant experience for each one.

Energy storage is the most exciting area in energy today. Massive amounts of energy storage are required if renewable energy is to take its rightful place on the electric grid. Invinity provides an alternative to the most common type of battery, lithium-ion because the battery technology that works so well in our pockets doesn't work as well at the grid scale; it wears out, limits use, and even catches fire. Manufactured as a standardised product in a factory, Invinity's vanadium flow batteries don't degrade, won't catch fire, and can be operated continuously from full charge to full discharge for over 30 years. Invinity has 75 megawatt-hours of its modular battery systems in 82 projects across 15 countries - more than any other company in the space. We've deployed the largest flow battery systems in the U.S., Canada, Australia, and the UK, and are supported by the UK's National Wealth Fund, some of the world's leading institutional investors and our projects are backed by major institutions including the U.S. Department of Energy and the UK Government. A compelling product and recent funding put Invinity in a position to grow dramatically as it addresses the global imperative for stationary energy storage. Join us as we help transform renewable energy into a stable and dependable contributor to the transition to net zero.
