If you are an early career, post doctoral researcher interested in chemical biology/biophysics/structural biology of ion channels and receptors, the group can potentially support you for some post doctoral Fellowship applications as outline below. Feel free to contact Taufiq Rahman with your CV. He particularly welcome those with ion channels or computational biophysics background.
Marie Skłodowska-Curie Post Doctoral Fellowship: The call for this fellowship is closed now. Please get in touch if you are interested in any in any project around any ion channels.
International Newton Fellowship (Royal Society): the call is closed now for this year; but happy to consider for 2025.
EMBO Post Doctoral Fellowship: Please get in touch if you are interested in any project around any ion channels.
