*An opening for a post-doctoral position is available immediately at the Structural Biology and Biocomputing Programme of the Spanish National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO) in Madrid, Spain.*
We are seeking a motivated scientist to join our group to study molecular mechanisms of cell signaling and adhesion. The project focuses on the structural and biochemical characterization of mechanisms that regulate and integrate growth factor receptor and integrin signaling. Candidates should have experience with protein expression, purification, crystallization, structure determination and refinement. Experience with baculovirus and/or mammalian expression systems is an advantage. The candidate will work with a team of highly motivated structural biologists and biochemists with collaborations both, within the CNIO with cell biology and computational groups, as well as externally with leading international research groups. For more information on the group see: http://www.cnio.es/ing/grupos/plantillas/presentacion.asp?grupo=50007726 The CNIO offers: • Access to state-of-the-art facilities for robotic crystallization setup, crystal visualization and X-ray diffraction data collection. • A vibrant, multi-disciplinary and international working environment. • The opportunity to be part of a European Cancer Research Centre of excellence that successfully combines basic and applied research. • A competitive salary and an attractive benefits package. • Situated in one of Europe’s cultural capitals Applications with CV and inquiries should be sent by email to the group leader, Dr. Daniel Lietha ([email protected]). All enquiries and applications will be treated confidentially.
