[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral Position in CNS antibody-ion channel mechanisms and design

2022-06-20 Thread Paul Miller
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral researcher position in the 
laboratory of Dr Paul Miller at the Department of Pharmacology, University of 
Cambridge, beginning from around October 2022.

The project will focus on studying the molecular basis of antibody modulation 
of ion channel function and applying structure-guided approaches to engineer 
new research tools. This is vital to define channel subtype contributions to 
CNS physiology and disease and to discover new therapeutic modalities. This is 
a great opportunity to gain experience in one or more aspects of handling 
challenging membrane proteins, structure-guided antibody engineering, and 
cryo-EM, ideal for follow-on academic and biotechnology careers. The lab 
utilises mammalian cell protein expression systems, membrane protein 
purification, and cryo-EM via Arctica and Krios microscopes with K2/K3 direct 
detectors, and also has manual and automated electrophysiology equipment,. More 
information about the laboratory is available at 
https://www.phar.cam.ac.uk/research/miller.

The applicant will be about to obtain a PhD or have obtained a PhD within the 
last 3 years. Experience in molecular biology, protein production, purification 
and structural biology (X-ray crystallography or cryo-EM) is required. You must 
be a careful and methodical worker, paying attention to accuracy, be able to 
take responsibility and interact as part of a tightly knit team, and be willing 
to work in a collaborative environment. You should be self-motivated and able 
to organise, perform and analyse experiments with minimal instruction.

A recent relevant publication from the lab is:
Kasaragod VB, Mortensen M, Hardwick SW, Wahid AA, Dorovykh V, Chirgadze DY, 
Smart TG, Miller PS.
Mechanisms of inhibition and activation of extrasynaptic alpha-beta GABA-A 
receptors.
Nature. 2022 Feb;602(7897):529-533. PMID: 35140402

Application Closing date: 15th July 2022
Project start date: Approximately 1st October 2022

Dear Community,

We're pleased to have an excellent panel for this month's Ask the Experts Web 
session including Dr. Dennis Thomas from Cold Spring Laboratory, Dr. Davide 
Demurtas from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, EPFL , and Dr. 
Aleksandr Mironov from the University of Manchester. This group will share 
their broad experiences for characterization of nanoparticles as well as 
cellular ultrastructure in three different multidisciplinary electron 
microscopy facilities.

If you are a biochemist, molecular biologist, or cell biologist, then you won't 
want to miss this chance to learn from our expert panel.

Join us on Tuesday, June 21, 2022 at 8 a.m. PDT, 11 a.m. EDT, 5 p.m. CEST.
