*Department of Biosciences/****Centre for Molecular Medicine (NCMM),
Nordic EMBL Partnership, University of Oslo.***
Two 2-year positions as researcher are available at the NRC project
"The intracellular pathway for MHC Class II antigen presentation". One
of the positions will work in the group of prof. Oddmund Bakke at the
Department of Biosciences and the second in the group of Dr. Preben
Morth at the Centre for Molecular Medicine, University of Oslo. A one
year prolongation is possible.
*Job Description*
The project focuses primarily on unraveling the function of the
endocytic pathway toward antigen loading using biophysical techniques,
molecular biological techniques, protein crystallography,
biochemistry, imaging (e.g live imaging) and
molecular/imaging/biochemical screens in cell culture systems and
cells from knock out/knock in mice. The project will focus on
unraveling the pathway toward MHC II antigen loading, in particular
the molecules associate with the transport to and from this
compartment in immune cells(See e.g. Neefjes et al., 2011, Nature
immunology ihttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22076556). The Morth
Group is a part of the Centre for Molecular Medicine Norway, home
page: http://www.ncmm.uio.no/research/groups/membrane-transport/. The
Bakke group is a member of a CoE,Centre for Immune Regulation
http://www.med.uio.no/cir/english/and prof Oddmund Bakke is also the
head of the National imaging platform NorMIC
Oslo,http://www.mn.uio.no/ibv/english/research/about/infrastructure/imaging/
with a wide range of imaging equipment. The work will include
collaboration with national and international groups in particular
Prof. Jacques Neefjes at the Dutch Cancer Centre, NKI in Amsterdam.
http://www.nki.nl/divisions/cell-biology-ii/neefjes-s-group/.
We are seeking highly motivated and skilled researchers with broad and
extensive experience within one or more of the following areas:
advanced imaging, molecular biology, cellular immunology, cell
biology, biochemistry, protein chemistry. Prior experience with
intracellular membrane/protein traffic and library screening will be
considered a strong advantage. One of the positions will
preferentially have experience withprotein crystallography and/or
biophysical methods.
*Qualifications:*
The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences has a strategic
ambition of being a leading research faculty. Candidates for these
fellowships will be selected in accordance with this, and expected to
be in the upper segment of their class with respect to academic
credentials.
The candidates must have a PhD or other corresponding education
equivalent to a Norwegian doctoral degree in molecular biology, cell
biology, biophysics or biochemistry or structural biology.
A good command of English is required.
English proficiency requirements
