Postdoctoral Research Associate - Strand, London, WC2R 2LS About us Our contemporary Chemistry Department, based in the Faculty of Natural, Mathematical and Engineering Sciences, provides an exciting place to explore the boundaries of the subject. The Department champions the discipline of Chemistry across King’s, leading with its own research and teaching, and encourages close interdisciplinary collaborations.     Our PGT and UG programmes have been designed to impart a rigorous theoretical and experimental understanding of chemistry, delivered within the context of biomedical applications. We strive to provide students with a thorough chemical education plus a perspective on, and experience of, diverse practical applications of chemistry that lays down a basis for a flexible, interesting career, particularly at the interface of chemistry and biomedicine.   To obtain further information about our Department,  please visit our website . About the role    The postdoctoral position will be an integrative part of an exciting ERC project dedicated to biosynthesize and electrochemically characterise a series of metalloenzymes as the central target of the last WP3 of the ERC project. The postdoc will have to also work on electrode chemical modifications and be able to work on computational modelling of the electrode/protein bioiterface.   We are seeking highly motivated postdoctoral candidates willing to fully commit to an exciting, cutting-edge project. The skills we are looking for are, but not limited to:  Preparation of enzymes using recombinant methods; synthesis, purification and modification. Experience in bioelectrochemistry and biosensing approaches using voltammetry, chronoamperometry and impedance spectroscopy. Biophysical characterization of enzyme proteins, use of CD, IR, NMR, etc Experience in computational modelling of biointerfaces using advanced molecular dynamic approaches This is a full time (35 hours per week) and you will be offered a fixed term contract until 28/02/2026. Research staff at King’s are entitled to at least 10 days per year (pro-rata) for professional development.
