Contract term: Permanent

About us

The CRUK Scotland Institute is a cancer research institute, situated in Glasgow with approximately 250 researchers split across 30 research groups consisting of PIs, postdoctoral scientists, PhD students and scientific officers. It is one of Europe's leading cancer research centres, supporting cutting-edge work into the molecular mechanisms of cancer development. As well as core support from Cancer Research UK, the Institute also receives an additional third of its total income from external grants and industry collaborations. It has an excellent reputation for fundamental cancer research, including world-class metabolism studies and renowned in vivo modelling of tumour growth and metastasis.

Position outline

The successful candidate will be expected to work as part of a team, assisting and conducting procedures required for the production and maintenance of our Histology department. This is primarily achieved by the application of a variety of skills which the candidate should have experience of including microtomy, tissue embedding, specimen reception, tissue handling and dissection.

Other skills which would add to the support that you can provide to the service include immunohistochemistry, in-situ hybridisation, cryomicrotomy, knowledge and experience of digital slide scanning and tissue recognition experience.

You should be able to work both independently and in close collaboration with the scientists and technicians associated with our research projects. In addition, you will be highly motivated and have good communication and organisational skills.

You should possess a Bachelors or Masters degree in biomedical science or similar and have a good understanding and demonstrable experience of the techniques required to support our Histology Services.

Whilst previous experience of Histology would be a significant advantage, we can provide the necessary training for candidates who can demonstrate excellent attention to detail, have great planning and organisational skills, and have a relevant scientific background.
