The SCMI is currently looking to recruit 3 support scientists, thanks to additional investment from University of Glasgow in cryo-EM.

Staff member sat at the controls of the electron microscope The Scottish Centre for Macromolecular Imaging (SCMI) is Scotland’s national cryo-EM facility, based at the University of Glasgow. Using our JEOL CRYO ARM 300 with Direct Electron Apollo and DE-64 detectors, we provide cryo-EM access to consortium members and external partners across Scotland. We also run a sample preparation lab and microscopes for specimen screening for local use.

Thanks to additional investment in the facility by the University of Glasgow, we are looking to recruit three support scientists to work with our users and develop the facility.

Glasgow is often listed as one of the top cities in the world and is especially known for its friendliness. In addition to the benefits of living in a vibrant city with rich heritage, our location on the west coast of Scotland gives great access to the Scottish countryside including the highlands and islands.
