🚨 MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship Opportunity – Synthetic Cells & Polymersomes (London)

I am looking for outstanding and highly motivated postdoctoral candidates to apply with me for a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowship at Queen Mary University of London. My group develops polymersome-based synthetic cells as programmable microreactors capable of life-like, out-of-equilibrium chemical behaviour, including feedback-controlled responses. We are particularly interested in:

Dynamic, non-equilibrium systems
Stimuli-responsive and light-activated compartments
Interactions between synthetic cells and living systems
Emergent behaviour in compartmentalised networks

This is an opportunity to work at the interface of polymer chemistry, synthetic biology, and systems chemistry in a highly interdisciplinary environment.

Why join us at QMUL? You will be part of a vibrant research ecosystem in London, with strong expertise in materials chemistry and bioengineering, excellent facilities, and extensive collaborations. MSCA Fellowships offer:

Competitive salary + mobility allowance
Strong support for career development and training
International and interdisciplinary networking opportunities

📅 Deadline: 10 September 2026 (please get in touch early to prepare a strong application) If you are interested, feel free to message me or send your CV and a short statement of research interests.
