Dear All,
A postdoc position at the University of Geneva to work on lipid kinases
is available starting from the 1st of January 2014.
We are seeking a highly motivated and independent postdoc to untangle
the regulation of PI3Ks lipid kinases using a multidisciplinary approach
based on structural biology.
Competences in cloning, protein expression, purification,
crystallization and X-ray crystallography are essential for this post.
Additional expertise in biophysical methods such as fluorescence, SPR,
ITC, thermophoresis and in cell-based assays would be desirable.
Applicants would integrate a dynamic team within the pharmaceutical
biochemistry lab at the school of pharmaceutical sciences, under the
supervision of Dr. Oscar Vadas. The project will use structural
information obtained from x-ray structures and Hydrogen/deuterium
exchange-mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) data to guide biophysical, in vitro
activity assays and cellular experiments. The University of Geneva
possesses extensive crystallographic resources, including
nanoliter-scale liquid-handling robots, in-house X-ray generator and has
access to synchrotron beam time. Successful candidate would benefit from
the cutting-edge instrumentation in biochemistry, drug discovery and
cell biology that is available within the faculty of sciences.
Candidates should send a cover letter, CV and contact information of
three references to Oscar Vadas at [email protected]
