　　The successful candidate will be carrying out work on a 3-year project grant funded by the MRC that aims at identifying compounds that could interfere with pathological signalling in dilated cardiomyopathy. The project is three tiered and involves high-end microscopy (FRAP, FRET), detailed molecular analysis (employing biophysical techniques such as SEC-MALS, ITC) and a high-throughput drug screen using a FRET-based method.
