Dear Colleagues,
I'd like to draw your attention to a job opening for a *post-doctoral
research fellow in the cryo-EM facility of the European Synchrotron,
ESRF, France*
CM01 is the ESRF’s cryo-EM facility dedicated to performing
high-resolution imaging of biological macromolecules, particularly for
the structural analysis of large, difficult to crystallize,
protein-protein or protein-nucleic acid complexes. CM01 has been
designed to complement, and create synergy with, the existing ESRF
macromolecular crystallography and BioSAXS beamlines and it is operated
as a joint effort from the four institutes (ESRF, EMBL, IBS and ILL)
located on the EPN campus. CM01 is equipped with a Krios G3 microscope
and state-of-the-art K3 direct electron detector and a GATAN LS Quantum
energy filter. CM01 offers single particle analysis (SPA) to users
worldwide, and in the near future cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) as
well. For more details on CM01, click here <https://www.esrf.fr/CM01>.
The postdoctoral position available will focus on the method development
in areas important for CM01 notably in SPA data analysis and cryo-ET. As
for all postdoctoral researchers in the Structural Biology Group, the
successful candidate will contribute to the operation of CM01 and will
provide support to external users as local contact. Furthermore, the
selected candidate will also participate in a research program aimed at
the structural characterization of the non-structural proteins of
coronavirus and in particular of SARS-CoV2. The research project focuses
on the molecular mechanisms of three non-structural proteins in viral
replication by employing an integrative structural biology approach,
including cryo-ET and SPA.
For direct inquiries, please contact Eaazhisai Kandiah
(eaazhisai.kand...@esrf.fr).
*Expected profile*
* PhD in biophysics, biology or closely related science obtained less
than 3 years ago
* A strong background in cryo-EM
* A strong interest in method development for cryo-EM
* Background in structural biology and protein production is desirable
* Knowledge of membrane proteins is an asset
* Ability to interact with multi-disciplinary staff and facility users
* Proficiency in English (working language at the ESRF)
More information on the working conditions and the *application portal*
are found here <https://esrf.gestmax.eu/1648/1/post-doc-cm01-pd64/en_US>.
Kindly please forward this email to relevant colleagues who might be
interested. Thanks very much!
Best wishes
Isai
