They will be mainly responsible for protein crystallography as well as the determination and interpretation of three-dimensional structures of different protein targets and protein-protein complexes. Good knowledge of protein crystallization, data collection and structural refinement is desirable. No knowledge of immunology is required. A variety of projects concerned with structural aspects of immunology are available. We combine structural and functional approaches in order to understand central immunological phenomena such as virus evasion from immune recognition (Achour et al, Immunity, 2002; Malard-Velloso et al, J. Immunology, 2004; Cerboni et al, Eur. J. Immunology, 2006; Achour et al, J. Mol. Biol. 2006; Thilo et al, J. Biol. Chem., 2007) and the role of molecular mimicry in the induction of autoimmune diseases and allergic responses (Sandalova et al, J. Biol. Chem. 2005; Kaiser et al, J. Biol. Chem. 2003; Kaiser et al, J. Mol. Biol. 2007). A large set of other projects is already well established. APPLICATION PROCEDURE: The application should include a CV (including in particular any experience relevant to the position announced) as well as the names and contact details of 2 references.
