We are looking for an exceptional Postdoctoral Research Fellow with strong Cell and Molecular Biology experience to join the Sapkota Lab to work on an exciting & innovative industry-academia collaborative project aimed at targeting membrane receptor and extracellular proteins for degradation through induced-proximity platforms. The field of targeted protein degradation, for example through PROTACs and molecular glue degraders, is emerging as an exciting new modality for research and therapeutics. The fellow will be based in the Sapkota lab (MRC-PPU, School of Life Sciences) and will work in close collaboration with teams at a leading international pharmaceutical company, which is funding this exciting interdisciplinary project. The Sapkota lab has developed several induced-proximity platforms for targeted protein degradation, phosphorylation, and dephosphorylation of intracellular proteins. This project seeks innovative approaches to push the boundaries to achieve proximity-induced degradation of cell membrane and extracellular proteins. This is a unique opportunity to gain experience in world-leading, collaborative and cutting-edge research in one of the hottest areas of modern translational chemical biology and drug discovery. The successful candidate would also be part of an early-stage academia-industry partnership that has exciting prospects for the future. The Sapkota Lab has an outstanding track-record of working with leading pharmaceutical industries, and Prof. Sapkota was recently recognized with the Biochemical Society 2025 Industry and Academic Collaboration Award.
