Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Research Software Engineer in Image Registration and Machine Learning for Clinical Translation of Neuroimaging
The project will involve extension of MSM (Multimodal Surface Matching) – a C++ tool for learning mappings between brain surfaces – in such a way to improve characterisation of brain variability and detection of subtle brain pathologies. MSM has already been used to greatly improve understanding of healthy brain organisation and development (e.g. Glasser MF Nature 2016, Garcia K PNAS 2018). This project will integrate MSM with machine learning to detect brain pathologies as outliers from normative models. The framework will be trialled for clinical translation on focal epilepsy localisation, detection of biomarkers of mental health and biomarkers of neurodevelopmental impairment. The project will be run in collaboration with the Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroimaging (WIN) Oxford University, and the Washington University St Louis.

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Research Assistant/Research Associate
The purpose of this post is to develop and expedite projects aimed at characterizing DDR response, replication stress and epigenetic networks in leukemia using newly developed disease models in the lab in London and a potential secondment in the Hong Kong University. Transcription factors and their associated epigenetic modifying enzymes are frequently deregulated or even mutated in human acute myeloid leukemia (Zeisig et al., 2012, Cancer Cell). Over the years, our lab has focused on characterization of key transcriptional/epigenetic networks and their emerging crosstalk with DNA damage repair (DDR) mechanisms critical for leukemia development (Kwok et al., 2006, Cancer Cell; Zeisig et al., 2007, Cancer Cell; Cheung et al., 2007, Nat Cell Biology; Arteaga et al., 2013, Cancer Cell; Esposito et al., 2015, Nature Medicine; Cheung et al., 2016, Cancer Cell; Luo et al., 2019, Cancer Cell; Zeisig et al., 2021 Science Translational Medicine, Luo et al., 2022, Molecular Cell). Details about the lab can be found at https://www.kcl.ac.uk/research/leukaemia-and-stem-cell-biology. The candidate will lead projects aiming to characterize novel crosstalk between DDR, replication stress, transcription-replication conflicts, and epigenetic mechanisms in establishment and treatment of leukemia. The initial contract is for 2 years but is renewable subject to the progress of the projects. Candidates are expected to have strong background and relevant publications in areas of DDR, DNA replication, epigenetic gene regulation and/or cancer biology

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Research Associate
The named post-doc will investigate differences and behaviours of epithelia versus endothelia in response to compressive or stretching forces. To do this, we will implement a well-developed ex vivo lung slice model where we can readily film both in response to methods that cause bronchoconstriction and vasoconstriction or relaxation. This person will be working within the Rosenblatt lab but will also be working within a broader consortium funded by the BBSRC sLoLa grant that investigates the role of forces on endothelia versus epithelia using a variety of different approaches ranging from microscale to tissue-scale (here). Thus, we will present our findings within the lab and to the consortium. The rest of our lab studies epithelial cell extrusion and its impacts on asthma and tumour cell invasion.

King’s College London (informally King’s or KCL) is a public research university located in London, United Kingdom, and a founding college and member institution of the federal University of London. King’s was established in 1829 by King George IV and Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, when it received its first royal charter (as a university college), and is one of the oldest universities in England. In 1836, King’s became one of the two founding colleges of the University of London. In the late 20th century, King’s grew through a series of mergers, including with Queen Elizabeth College and Chelsea College of Science and Technology (in 1985), the Institute of Psychiatry (in 1997), the United Medical and Dental Schools of Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospitals and the Florence Nightingale School of Nursing and Midwifery (in 1998).
King’s has five campuses: its historic Strand Campus in central London, three other Thames-side campuses (Guy’s, St Thomas’ and Waterloo) nearby and one in Denmark Hill in south London. It also has a presence in Shrivenham for its professional military education and in Newquay, Cornwall, where its information service centre is based. In 2019/20, King’s had a total income of £964.3 million, of which £200.5 million was from research grants and contracts. It has the fourth largest endowment of any university in the United Kingdom, and the largest of any in London. It is the 12th largest university in the United Kingdom by total enrolment. Its academic activities are organised into nine faculties, which are subdivided into numerous departments, centres, and research divisions.
It is a member of academic organisations including the Association of Commonwealth Universities, the European University Association, and the Russell Group. King’s is home to six Medical Research Council centres and is a founding member of the King’s Health Partners academic health sciences centre, Francis Crick Institute and MedCity. It is the largest European centre for graduate and post-graduate medical teaching and biomedical research, by number of students, and includes the world’s first nursing school, the Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery. King’s is at times regarded as part of the “golden triangle” of universities located in the cities of Oxford, Cambridge and London.
