A post doctoral position founded by E.U. is open in the _Pasteur
Institute in Paris _to carry out structural work on bacterial homologues
of cys-loop receptors.
The position will be equally shared between the "Channel-Receptors"
group for protein production and the "Structural Dynamics of
Macromolecules" unit for crystallization, synchrotron data collection
and structure refinement.
Expertise in crystallography is required, as well as the ability to work
in collaboration.
Experience in membrane protein biochemistry and/or in structural
bioinformatics would be a plus.
