02 How we recruit

Specific questions.
Clear scientific fit.

Recruitment to TuttleLab is based on an advertised position or a clear match between a proposed project and the group’s research. Please do not send generic speculative applications. If you contact the group outside an advertised vacancy, explain the scientific question you want to pursue, why it fits the lab, and the funding route you are considering.

Current funded opportunities

These roles are part of the CoreShell Fibre Foundry, an ARIA-funded programme developing predictive and experimentally integrated approaches to molecular assembly and functional fibre formation. ARIA is the UK’s high-risk, high-reward research agency.

Postdoctoral position

CoreShell ML Protein Assembly PDRA

Development of predictive and active-learning models linking protein sequence, simulation-derived descriptors and experimental assembly outcomes.

Contract
Initially funded for 18 months, with the possibility of continuation to around 3 years subject to successful programme milestones, further funding and University approval.

Both roles are part of the same wider CoreShell team and will work closely across computational, machine-learning and experimental work packages. This is ambitious, technically challenging and highly collaborative work.

01

Funded positions

Two postdoctoral positions are currently advertised.

Full role details and application requirements are available through the University vacancy pages linked above.

02

PhD students

Prospective PhD students should make contact only where there is a specific research idea aligned with the group’s work.

A concise enquiry should identify the scientific question, explain the fit with TuttleLab, and state the likely funding route. Generic messages without a defined scientific connection are unlikely to receive a response.

03

Undergraduate & project students

Undergraduate and project-student opportunities depend on project availability, timing and appropriate supervision.

Enquiries should refer to a specific area of the group’s research and briefly explain the question or topic the student hopes to investigate.
