Exciting Researcher position is available focusing on “Whey proteins and
bioactive peptides; antidiabetic and anti-cancerous properties” as part of
food bioactives and nutraceuticals research program.
As an enthusiastic and innovative researcher, you will join the Food,
Nutrition and Health Department and perform research activities in a funded
project being carried out in collaboration with multidisciplinary team within
UAEU and abroad (Canada and Malaysia). You will explore anti-diabetic and
anticancer potential of whey proteins, and the whey bioactive peptides derived
from camel and cow whey. In-vitro and in-vivo approach will be used to test
the proteins and bioactive peptides. Moreover, development of functional and
nutraceutical-based products will be carried out and tested for potential
bioactive properties and consumers acceptability.
Key laboratory techniques required are likely to be spectrophotometry, HPLC,
working with cancer cell lines, protein/peptide fractionation, Western
blotting, anticancer assays, and animal studies will be a plus.
The project would suit a candidate with experience in biochemistry, food
science, pharmacology, cancer biology with strong lab skills and preferably
experience in a cell culture lab technique.
If this position excites you, apply today with a covering letter detailing why
you would be suitable for this research position, and include a full
Curriculum vitae (Resumé), with academic transcripts and referee contact
details.
The candidate will have to work independently in a laboratory conditions and
is expected to have strong manuscript writing skills.
Minimum Qualification
Applicant must have a Master’s or PhD degree in Food Science/
biochemistry/Nutrition or related discipline from a recognized higher
education institution.
Candidate should demonstrate previous experience in the relevant research
through involvement in similar research projects and published articles.
Preferred Qualification
