A two-years postdoctoral position in protein crystallography is
available in the group of Pr. Sylvie Nessler in Gif sur Yvette (near
Paris) France. We are interested in understanding the molecular
signalling mechanisms involved in bacterial virulence. Our main
results concern structural analysis of bacterial P-loop containing
protein kinases but we also develop new projects dealing with other
potential therapeutic targets. We use protein crystallography,
combined with biochemical and biophysical methods to obtain a
molecular understanding of the function of these proteins. We are
looking for a Postdoc with demonstrated experience (i.e. relevant
publications) in protein X-ray crystallography to join our team and
work on the “Phosphorylation and virulence” project (see, http://www.lebs.cnrs-gif.fr/morera/home.html)
. The selected candidate will have access to the LEBS technical
plateform as well as to the French synchrotron facility SOLEIL located
close to the laboratory. Salary will be commensurate with experience.
Applications (including CV, research experience and the names and
contact informations of at least two referees) should be sent per
email to [email protected]
