Postdoctoral Fellow
In Protein Crystallography
Your tasks
With stable light source, flexible optics, multi-axes goniometer
(PRIGO), and advance pixel detector (PILATUS) at SLS PX beamlines,
this postdoctoral position offers you an unique opportunity to develop
smart diffraction data collection strategies for advanced phasing and
challenging crystallographic projects. In order to fully exploit the
potential of the experimental data, you will also work on the
optimization of data processing, scaling, and structure solution
within international collaborations. Furthermore, you are expected to
contribute to the integration of data collection strategy, data
processing, assessment, and structure solution procedures into the
beamline user interface. In addition, you will conduct your own
structural biology research in collaboration with PSI internal and
external partners.
Your profile
You hold a PhD degree in biology, chemistry or physics, and have
substantial experience in protein crystallography. Working knowledge
for data processing programs, and various phasing and refinement
software is a must. Experience in computer programming would be a
significant advantage. If you are a good team player with fine
communication skills and sense of responsibility, this position will
offer a great opportunity for you to develop your research career in
an exciting and highly multidisciplinary environment.
