This area continues to grow in importance in the healthcare sector, where high specificity, low immunogenicity, and use across a wide variety of diseases (e.g., cancer, diabetes, and multiple sclerosis) provide significant potential. Moreover, the substantial market for therapeutic proteins is anticipated to more than double this decade.</p>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\">The School of Pharmacy has existing expertise in large molecule (biologics) research, however there is a distinct need to complement expertise in this exciting new area to ensure that we are aligned to ongoing broader trends in the pharmaceutical industry, the increasing importance of biological therapeutics and progress of translational research into drug products.</p>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\">The School welcomes applicants from diverse academic backgrounds and encourages new thematic areas of collaboration and funding which build upon existing areas of strength.</p>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\">In line with our strategy, we are seeking to recruit a member of staff to make a significant contribution to the development of research in protein therapeutics.</p>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\"><strong>The successful candidate must have, and your application should clearly demonstrate you have:</strong> </p>\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Honours degree or equivalent in biological or pharmaceutical sciences, pharmacy or a closely related discipline.</li>\n<li>PhD or equivalent in an area relevant to the job purpose.</li>\n<li>High academic standing with a reputation in research in a relevant field since obtaining PhD.</li>\n<li>Recent, relevant publications in peer reviewed/refereed journals that are recognised internationally as being high quality, commensurate with experience.</li>\n<li>Distinctive research profile in protein therapeutics. Experience of relevant techniques in the field such as pegylation, bioconjugation, stimuli-response polymers for protein-polymer therapeutics, and up-to-date on emerging trends.</li>\n<li>Experience of developing research methodologies, models, approaches and techniques.</li>\n<li>Experience of presentations at national and international meetings and conferences.</li>\n<li>Must be prepared to assist with delivery at QUB external campuses from time to time, for example, in China Queen’s College.</li>\n</ul>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\"><strong>Please note the above are not an exhaustive list.
