Dear all, I am posting an advertisement for a tenure-track group leader position for structural biology on membrane proteins on behalf of Prof. Dr. Robert Tampé, Institute of Biochemistry, Biocenter, Goethe-University Frankfurt. Please reply to <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] for questions and/or application. Deadline is November 30th, 2013.
With kind regards, Martin Pos Senior Scientist / Group leader Position (tenure-track) Structural Biology on Membrane Proteins Institute of Biochemistry, Biocenter, Goethe-University Frankfurt A senior scientist position is available to join a research group interested in investigating the structure and mechanism of membrane transport complexes involved in immunity, viral and tumor immune evasion. The position funded for two years (with a renewal for long-term carrier perspective as tenure-track group leader position) is embedded in a lively and international competitive research environment, including the Cluster of Excellence on Macromolecular Complexes ( <http://www.cef-mc.de> www.cef-mc.de) and the Collaborative Research Center on Membrane Transport and Communication ( <http://www.sfb807.de> www.sfb807.de). Candidates having proved their outstanding commitment to science by a prior experimental thesis in biochemistry, molecular biology, structural biology, or a closely related field are encouraged to apply. The successful candidate should have significant experience in x-ray crystallography and present a strong publication record in quality peer-reviewed journals. The position also includes radiation survey, supervision of the central isolab, of the central gene technical security S1, and of the S2/S3 lab together with the organization and mentoring of the practical courses. Parallel to previously mentioned scientific tasks, the successful candidate will be given opportunity to promote her/his own scientific career and to acquire further qualifications. Very good IT skills, teaching experience, creative thinking, the ability to work independently as well as collaboratively so as to lead a small team of (under)graduate students are required.
