Research Assistant (HE)

Job description.

Research Assistants work in a wide range of different fields in the sciences and social sciences. They are usually based in one or more university departments and work on projects alone, or collaboratively with colleagues in the same institution or in another university. The hours of work are flexible, being determined by the individual depending on the needs of the project. Researchers usually work long hours, especially as deadlines draw closer.

  • Plan research projects, including one’s own role within them
  • Seek funding for the project from external and internal sources
  • Lead pilot projects/feasibility studies if required
  • Undertake research, either laboratory or office-based or in the field
  • Record findings
  • Present findings to peers at conferences or in published articles
  • Keep records and accounts of the management of the project

Salary and Conditions

Many researchers do not have permanent positions; their jobs are on temporary contracts for the life of the particular project. Researchers can spend many years jumping from project to project without any real job security. Projects can last anything from a few months to a number of years. This flexibility and variety suits many people. The starting salary for a research assistant is between £20-25,000.

Entry Criteria

Many research assistant posts require a good undergraduate degree in a subject relevant to the subject to be studied. As well as a formal qualification, employers are usually looking for a particular set of skills gained doing similar sorts of research, for example using certain statistical methods or certain pieces of equipment. They will also expect you to display in-depth knowledge of the overall field of research.

Career Path

Research assistants start out by assisting on someone else’s project, usually for a period of a few months or a year. By doing this they gain experience and are then able to move on to longer term projects and managing their own budgets and staff at a more senior level.

Major employers

University-based research assistants are mostly employed in publicly funded universities or HE colleges. There are many different sorts of these in the UK. Oxford and Cambridge are the most prestigious, followed by research-based institutions such as the Russell Group. The post-1992 group of universities, which used to be Polytechnics, also employ many research assistants. There is one private university in the UK, based in Buckingham. Every large town or city in the UK now has its own university.

Research Assistant/Associate (senescence and Chemotherapy)

Newcastle, GB

Research Assistant: £31,396 to £32,982 per annum

Research Associate: £33,966 to £44,263 per annum

Newcastle University is a great place to work, with excellent benefits . We have a generous holiday package; plus the opportunity to buy more, great pension schemes and a number of health and wellbeing initiatives to support you.

Closing Date: 06 June 2024

Your role: Our lab has demonstrated that cellular senescence is induced by Chemotherapy. Through the production of a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which is pro-senescent, pro-fibrotic and pro-hypertrophic, we hypothesise that senescent cells promote adverse myocardial remodelling. This ultimately impairs cardiac dysfunction. Our goal now is to characterises these senescent cells and find novel way to target them to improve cardiovascular health outcomes for cancer survivors. 

The project: Improved diagnosis and treatment have significantly increased cancer patient survival. However, cardiotoxicity leading to heart failure is a major complication of many anti-cancer therapies and a growing healthcare problem, cardiovascular disease now being the leading cause of death in cancer survivors. Senescence is a cellular fate defined by cell cycle exit, mitochondrial dysfunction and the expression of the pro-senescent, pro-fibrotic and pro-inflammatory senescence-associated secretory phenotype and is a recognised outcome of chemotherapy. Our data from mouse models in which myocardial senescence has been induced by various stimuli (irradiation, natural ageing or ischaemia reperfusion) suggest that an accumulation of cardiac senescence leads to myocardial dysfunction by promoting myocardial remodelling. In this project, we aim to translate these studies by using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes and primary cells to establish in vitro models of chemotherapy-induced senescence in several human cardiac cell lineages. These models will be utilised to characterise the senescent phenotype in order to identify prognostic biomarkers of cardiac dysfunction, molecular therapeutic targets, and identification of novel cardio-senotherapeutic compounds for mitigation of chemotherapy-induced heart failure.

This post is fixed term for a period 3 years.

Please note that if you are successful to this role, you will require medical clearance before you can commence in the role.
