(04) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position
Postdoc summary/title:– Research Associate – Classifying and Understanding Remedies in Comparative Labour Law – CURE
CURE is a 5-year comparative project, originally funded by the ERC Consolidator Grant scheme and guaranteed by UKRI, based at the Department of Law, University of Manchester and led by Professor Aristea Koukiadaki. Its overall objectives are to set a new intellectual agenda and direction in comparative labour law by examining the concept and function of remedial rules and institutions. Reframing remedies as an intermediary link between different systems crucial in the production of our imaginaries of justice, CURE aims to provide a new reading of labour law systems on the basis of how they respond to violations, wrongs and injustices. The 5-year project adopts a multi-dimensional, comparative and multi-method research design to evaluate how the juridical concept of remedies has evolved across different dimensions of the employment relationship in a set of different national systems (i.e. France, Greece, Poland, Sweden and the UK). Data collection and analysis will include legal doctrinal and empirical (i.e. legal computational and qualitative) methods that are specifically designed to capture and interpret internal (i.e. legal) and external (i.e. political and economic) perspectives on the regulation of the remedial framework in comparative labour law.
We seek to establish an international team that will work in close collaboration to deliver highly original research in the areas of the project. The work for the project will start on the 1 November 2024 and the contract is for 30 months. The Research Associate will be responsible for the case of Poland and will be based in the Department of Law, in the School of Social Sciences. The work shall be carried out in line with the grant application granted originally by the ERC (as a Consolidator Grant) and guaranteed by UKRI.

(06) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position
Postdoc summary/title:– Research Associate in Multiscale Imaging
The extracellular matrix is a complex network of fibrillar proteins, glycoproteins and secreted factors that form complex assemblies essential for tissue structure and function. Most components of the extracellular matrix are large, insoluble multicomponent complexes which are extensively post-translationally modified. Within the Manchester Cell Matrix Centre, we have expertise in imaging all hierarchies of matrix, from high resolution structures of individual matrix proteins to tissue-level imaging. One of our research themes is to now integrate these imaging approaches to visualise matrix across scales. Therefore, the aim of this project is to integrate the imaging from the molecular to the tissue scale. Working with research groups across the Platform and with Facilities (Electron Microscopy, Bioimaging, eBiC and National X-ray Computed Tomography), you will develop 3D imaging approaches (eg cryo-electron tomography of adhesion complexes and correlated microCT and SBF-SEM of tissues) which will be applied to matrix samples, and to integrate these data from different length scales.
Located at The University of Manchester, the Centre is one of eight Discovery Research Platforms recently awarded by the Wellcome Trust. The Discovery Research Platform for Cell-Matrix Biology will address a range of practical, technological, and methodological barriers to understanding how changes in the extracellular matrix leads to tissue failure. We are seeking driven and ambitious individuals to play a pivotal role in overcoming these barriers. Successful candidates will contribute to our bold vision to reprogramme extracellular matrix, which has the potential to lead to innovative new diagnostic tools and treatments for diseases such as cancer and fibrosis. The platform will embrace a Team Science approach and provide an exciting opportunity to work with groups from diverse research areas and collaborate across disciplines.
