The Shakeel lab is a newly established multidisciplinary team that focuses around electron cryo-microscopy and is complemented by biochemical and biophysical techniques.

We collaborate with other laboratories in the Structural Biology and Epigenetics and Development divisions and WEHI. We are always interested to hear from enthusiastic candidates at all career stages.
