Postdoctoral position in structural biology
Research
Grenoble, France
An ERC-funded postdoctoral position in structural biology is available in the laboratory of Dr. Wojciech Galej at the EMBL Grenoble, France. We are looking for a highly motivated and ambitious individual to join our team interested in the structure and function of RNA-protein complexes. Our group investigates various aspects of gene expression, including pre-mRNA splicing, snRNP biogenesis and transcription regulation by the Integrator complex. We use a multidisciplinary approach to tackle complex biological problems by combining cryo-EM/ET, computational modelling, and other biochemical and biophysical methods. The main focus of this position will be structural studies of the splicing machinery.
Your role
Taking up and leading a challenging structural biology project
Designing and performing experimental procedures
Analysing and interpreting experimental data
Taking part in regular group meetings, unit seminars and international conferences
Staying up to date with the literature and the latest methodological developments relevant to the project
Closing date: 13 June 2023
Contract duration: 2 years
Grading: P1
Reference number: GR00207
You have
PhD in molecular biology or a related field
Extensive experience in biochemistry and/or molecular/cell biology
Good knowledge of structural biology methods, in particular cryo-EM/ET
Independence and ability to solve problems
Good time management and pro-active attitude
Excellent communication skills and ability to work in a team
