We have immediate openings for two postdoctoral researchers and one PhD
student at the /Institut de Biologie Structurale/ (www.ibs.fr
<http://www.ibs.fr>) in Grenoble, France, to study the structural
dynamics of light-sensitive proteins by time-resolved serial
crystallography at XFELs and potentially future 4^th generation
synchrotrons.
Serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) at X-ray free electron lasers
(XFEL) allows studying the structural dynamics of crystalline proteins
by means of time-resolved crystallography (TR-SFX). We apply TR-SFX to
explore conformational changes after photon absorption by various
light-sensitive proteins on a broad time scale ranging from
sub-picoseconds to seconds (Nature Chemistry 10, 31 (2018)). These
animate structures obtained by static SFX (J Phys Chem Lett 7, 882
(2016); Nature 539, 43 (2016).
At the postdoctoral level, we are looking for highly motivated
individuals with a proven record in macromolecular crystallography with
a keen interest in data processing and handling and intermediate-state
structure refinement.
At the PhD level, we welcome applications from students trained in
protein biophysics, and preferably in crystallography.
If you are interested, please contact either Martin Weik (w...@ibs.fr
<mailto:w...@ibs.fr>) or Jacques-Philippe Colletier (collet...@ibs.fr).
