Jobs in Structural Biology and Related Fields


Postdoctoral position in AI for Molecular Modelling


London, United Kingdom
Application deadline: 21 Sep 2026


Department of Computer Science - Brunel University of London
Contract Type: Fixed-term until 30/11/2028
 
This position will contribute to the UKRI NERC-funded project “Defining species sensitivities to endocrine-disrupting chemicals” led by Brunel University of London in collaboration with the University of Southampton. 
 
The Research Fellow will deliver the computational component of the project through protein structure modelling, molecular docking and detailed analysis of protein-ligand interactions. They will integrate these results with receptor-interaction data generated by the experimental collaborators at the University of Southampton to develop and evaluate artificial intelligence (AI) methods for predicting chemical binding and species sensitivity. 
 
Preference will be given to candidates with knowledge and experience of protein molecular modelling, protein–ligand docking, machine learning methods for computational biology, and software development in Python. 
 
For information, please email Dr Alessandro Pandini at alessandro.pandini@brunel.ac.uk 
 
Closing date for applications: 21st September 2026
Interviews will take place during the week of 12th October 2026 online.
