About us
The Francis Crick Institute is Europe’s largest biomedical research institute under one roof. Our world-class scientists and staff collaborate on vital research to help prevent, diagnose and treat illnesses such as cancer, heart disease, infectious diseases and neurodegenerative conditions.
The Crick is a place for collaboration, innovation and exploration across many disciplines. A space where the brightest minds can pursue big and bold ideas and discover answers to crucial scientific questions. We support them in a dynamic environment which fosters excellence with state-of-the-art infrastructure, cutting-edge facilities, and a creative and curious culture. We’ve removed traditional boundaries of departments, divisions and disciplines and instead have an open approach that supports every researcher. This gives us the freedom to take risks and carry out high-quality, pioneering research. Creating a space for discovery without boundaries helps us to turn our science into benefits for human health and the economy.
About the Stem Cells and Organoid Platform (SCOP)
The Stem Cells and Organoids Platform (SCOP) at the Francis Crick Institute is a Science Technology Platform (STP) dedicated to advancing innovative research in human stem cell biology and organoid technologies. It provides specialised expertise and services that support the development of human model systems. By integrating complementary expertise in stem cells, gene editing, and organoid development, the platform provides an end-to-end pipeline for stem cell research, accelerating cutting-edge discovery across the institute.
About the role
We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Laboratory Research Scientist to lead and support advanced organoid and 3D human model projects within SCOP.
Working at the forefront of human in vitro model technologies, you will develop and optimize complex organoid systems including patient-derived and iPSC-derived models, while supporting collaborative research projects across the Crick. You will also play a key role in establishing new shared workflows, training researchers and helping shape the Crick’s capabilities in organoid technologies and stem cell biology.
