The biochemistry department at the Biocenter of the University of Wuerzburg seeks to fill:
A postdoctoral and a PhD position funded by the Volkswagen Foundation. The successful candidates will work on the structural elucidiation of poxviral transcription complexes and the rational design of inhibitors targeting the poxviral cytosolic transcription machinery. Ideal PhD candidates should hold an excellent diploma or master degree in physics, biology, biochemistry, biophysics, or a related field of science. Ideal PostDoc candidates should hold an excellent PhD in structural biology, biophysics, physics or in an equivalent area with previous experience in structural biology or protein biochemistry. The positions offer the opportunity to be involved I a wide spectrum of current methods from recombinant DNA technology over protein biochemistry (protein purification and analytics of large viral complexes), in silico drug design, high throughput screening to single particle cryo EM. The latter method is a major focus of the group which has regular access to the 300 keV Titan Krios-TEM of the university. The PhD position furthermore offers a structured educational program within the framework of the Graduate School of Life Sciences (GSLS). Both positions include the possibility to transition through an industrial setting at Intana Bioscience GmbH (Martinsried), which is our cooperation partner for high throughput screening. Interested candidates should contact directly: Utz Fischer (utz.fisc...@uni-wuerzburg.de) or Clemens Grimm (clemens.gr...@uni-wuerzburg.de) ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 This message was issued to members of www.jiscmail.ac.uk/CCP4BB, a mailing list hosted by www.jiscmail.ac.uk, terms & conditions are available at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/policyandsecurity/
