Postdoctoral Research Associate at King’s College London – (Jobs/Scholarships)


About Us

The post will be based at Guy’s Campus of King’s College London. The successful candidate will work with Professor James Arnold (https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-arnold-1a0497263/) and be part of the Tumour Immunology Group (https://www.kcl.ac.uk/research/tumour-immunology-group).   

About The Role

A Postdoctoral Research Associate position is open in the Tumour Immunology Group at King’s College London run by Professor James Arnold (https://www.kcl.ac.uk/research/tumour-immunology-group). 

This project, funded by the Little Princess Trust, will focus on advancing switchable Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) technology incorporating tumour microenvironment (TME) modulating payloads. The overarching goal is to overcome the key barriers limiting CAR T-cell efficacy in solid tumours, particularly neuroblastoma, by enabling tumour-restricted activation while simultaneously modulating the TME to support robust and sustained anti-tumour responses.

A major focus of the project will be on understanding the role of macrophages within the TME, including their contribution to immune suppression, tumour progression, and resistance to immunotherapy. The successful candidate will investigate strategies to reprogramme tumour-associated macrophages and reshape the broader stromal and immune landscape, with the aim of identifying CAR T-cell approaches that are both highly effective and exhibit minimal off-tumour toxicity.

The position will be primarily based at King’s College London, Guy’s Campus, offering access to a highly collaborative and interdisciplinary research environment. The project is conducted in close collaboration with Professor John Anderson and Dr Thomas Jackson at UCL and the Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health, providing strong translational links to paediatric oncology and clinical application.

The project will employ a broad range of experimental approaches, including in vivo models of neuroblastoma to assess therapeutic efficacy and safety of the CAR approaches, alongside ex vivo and in vitro analyses to dissect cellular and molecular mechanisms. Techniques will include multiparametric flow cytometry, immunofluorescence and advanced imaging, transcriptomic profiling and in vivo and ex vivo CAR generation. Integration of these datasets will enable a systems-level understanding of this novel CAR T-cell approach for the treatment of neuroblastoma and guide the rational design of improved therapeutic strategies.

This project offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to a highly translational research programme aimed at developing safer and more effective CAR T-cell therapies for paediatric solid tumours, with clear potential for clinical impact.

Understanding Iron Transport and Flow Assisted Corrosion in PWR Secondary Systems at The University of Manchester – (Jobs/Scholarships)

Postdoctoral Research Associate at King’s College London – (Jobs/Scholarships)


Application deadline: 30/05/2026
How to apply: https://uom.link/pgr-apply-2425 

This 4-year PhD studentship is open to Home (UK) applicants. The successful candidate will receive an annual tax-free stipend set at the UKRI rate (£20,780 for 2025/26; subject to annual uplift), and tuition fees will be paid. We expect the stipend to increase each year. The start date is October 2026.

Introduction

As PWRs extend their operational lifetimes, the behaviour of corrosion products within the secondary circuit becomes increasingly important. At Sizewell B, the accumulation of iron oxide based deposits has implications for thermal performance, impurity concentration, degradation mechanisms such as denting and hard collar formation, and long term component reliability. Much of this behaviour is linked to flow assisted corrosion (FAC) in carbon steel systems, but the mechanisms of iron release, transport and deposition remain insufficiently understood. This PhD will directly address these knowledge gaps by combining experimental testing, materials characterisation, and simulated secondary side flow conditions.

Project Overview

This doctoral project will develop improved understanding of FAC behaviour and iron transport within PWR secondary circuits.

You will:

  • Characterise particulate iron and corrosion products.
  • Develop a laboratory flow loop to simulate secondary side flow conditions.
  • Perform accelerated FAC experiments under controlled conditions, varying water chemistry, flow conditions, and material condition.
  • Investigate the evolution of corrosion product morphology and release mechanisms under different chemistry and flow regimes.
  • Assess strategies for operational chemistry optimisation to reduce FAC rates and mitigate deposition formation in the steam generator

Your findings will support EDF’s long term operation strategy for Sizewell B and contribute to improved understanding of secondary side corrosion processes in PWRs.

Benefits to the Student

  • A fully funded studentship is available at the standard UKRI stipend rate. Additional industrial engagement through EDF Energy is included, and any eligible industrial stipend enhancements will be confirmed during the award process.
  • Close collaboration with EDF Energy’s Chemistry and Corrosion R and D team.
  • Opportunity for up to 3 months of work experience at Sizewell B, subject to security clearance.
  • Access to advanced corrosion testing and characterisation facilities at the University of Manchester.
  • Opportunities to present work at national and international conferences.
  • Excellent career prospects in nuclear energy, corrosion science, plant chemistry, and materials engineering.

Candidate Requirements

Applications are welcomed from students with backgrounds in:

  • Materials science
  • Chemistry or chemical engineering
  • Nuclear engineering
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Or related disciplines

A strong interest in experimental work, corrosion science, and materials characterisation is essential. Training will be provided in all specialist techniques, so motivated candidates from adjacent fields are also encouraged to apply.

This studentship is open to UK nationals / home fee students. EU students with settled or pre-settled status and international student can apply but their application eligibility will be determined on a case-by-case basis.

Applicants should have, or expect to achieve, at least a 2.1 honours degree or a master’s (or international equivalent) in a relevant science or engineering related discipline.

To apply, and for further details,  please contact the main supervisor; Prof Fabio Scenini – fabio.scenini@manchester.ac.uk. Please include details of your current level of study, academic background and any relevant experience and include a paragraph about your motivation to study this PhD project.
