Protein Crystallographer - AstraZeneca,Mölndal AstraZeneca is now looking for a PhD with hands on experience of protein crystallography. This one year temporary position will be placed in the crystallography group at the Structural Chemistry Laboratory at AstraZeneca R&D Mölndal, Sweden. The Structural Chemistry Laboratory, Mölndal is a centre of excellence supporting the AstraZeneca discovery organizations in Sweden, UK and US. The laboratory has around 35 scientists engaged in experimental research and the core disciplines are protein engineering, NMR spectroscopy and protein crystallography. The lab is excellently equipped with state of the art equipment. Recently a full set of robotics has been installed to support the process from protein crystallization to data collection. The successful candidate will join one of the sub-teams and work in direct support of one of the therapeutic areas. This is an excellent opportunity for a structural scientist to gain experience from the international and multidisciplinary environment within one of the worlds leading pharmaceutical companies. The candidate will mainly be involved in the support of structure-based drug-design projects. The candidate should therefore have a strong genuine interest in and experience from studying molecular interactions by crystallography preferentially in a pharmaceutical environment. Experience from synchrotron and computational work and an organized working-practice are strictly necessary requirements. A background in organic chemistry, biochemistry or biophysics is advantageous. The position requires enthusiasm, flexibility and a natural talent to interact in a team as well as the ability to communicate effectively.
