SCIENCE-JOBS-DE Stellenausschreibung (vacancies)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Hannover Medical School (MHH), founded in 1965, is one of the world's leading 
university medical centres. Our outstanding success in interdisciplinary 
collaboration both within the MHH and with extramural scientific institutions 
is reflected in the fact that the MHH is the German medical university with the 
largest volume of grant funding. The Institute of Virology hosts 7 research 
teams funded by the DFG, the EU, Volkswagenstiftung, Wilhelm-Sander-Stiftung 
and the BMBF and working on important human pathogenic viruses such as the 
KSHV, HCMV, HSV, HCV, HIV, and adenoviruses. 
In the Sodeik team, we study the herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection of 
epithelial cells and neurons using digital life-cell imaging and dual-colour 
fluorescent viral strains, electron microscopy, and biochemical assays 
reconstituting key aspects of the viral life cycle. Our success in our 
scientific endeavoursÂ’ is built on curiosity, innovation, and diverse 
approaches to do science. We offer a nice, dynamic team driven by collaborative 
efforts. 
Within the ERA NanoSci+ project on Nanocommunication: How viral particles 
convince cells to let them inside in collaboration with the Vrije Universiteit 
(Amsterdam), Oxford University and the Israel Technion Institute of Technology 
(Haifa) we are looking for a highly motivated scientist willing to work in a 
high-profile international, interactive team. 

Your major task will be to analyse the interaction of HSV capsids with the 
nuclear pore, to identify the host nuclear import and pore factors interacting 
with HSV, and to understand viral genome release and import into the nucleus on 
a molecular level. The preferred candidate has a PhD degree and a strong 
scientific background in biochemistry, cell biology or virology. Hands-on 
experience studying the nuclear pore complex, RNAi, subcellular fractionation, 
fluorescence microscopy, and expression of recombinant proteins would be an 
asset. 

The positions is available for three years starting in July 2009. Please feel 
free to call us for further informal inquiries. Applications including a CV and 
three letters of recommendation should be sent to Beate Sodeik by June 10th, 
2009.
