[ccp4bb] ESRF workshop on sample preparation for Cryo-EM

2018-07-24 Thread David FLOT

(on behalf of the organisers)

Dear All,

We are pleased to announce a 2 day practical workshop on sample
preparation for cryo-EM single particle data collection jointly
organised by the ESRF, EMBL Grenoble and the IBS. This is the first of a
series of practical hand-on workshops to come in the future. This
workshop is aimed at PhDs, Postdocs and young scientists new to the
field of single particle cryo-EM and will be held at the European
Synchrotron in Grenoble, France from September 18th to 19th 2018. During
the course, participants will learn theoretical and practical aspects of
sample preparation for single particle cryo-EM.

There is no registration fee and meals and accommodation during the
workshop will be provided free of charge. However, participants should
arrange and pay for their own travel to/from Grenoble. A maximum of 12
participants will be selected and we will accept a limited number of
participants’ samples to be tested during the workshop. In the case
that you plan to bring your own sample(s), please clearly mention this
in your cover letter, also indicating the importance of the project.
Application for the workshop should be supported by a motivation letter
and a CV. Registration is open and can be done using the link
http://www.esrf.fr/home/events/conferences/area-events/esrf-events-list/cryo-em-workshop.html. 


The deadline for application is August 31st. Successful candidates will
be informed during the first week of September.

Best regards,
Workshop organisers

For further information, please visit 
http://www.echeminfo.com/events/echeminfo-oxford-2018 
 or contact us.
Bursary Awards are available (deadline 01. August) at 
http://www.echeminfo.com/bursary-awards
Early-bird reduced rates are still available until 01. August.
About eChemInfo: This series of workshops provides a set of stimulating 
lectures and group work sessions using state-of-the-art and emerging modelling 
techniques of relevance to chemists, life scientists and modellers working in 
rational drug design. Participants return to their labs with new ideas, best 
practices and software experiences to maximise productivity in their own drug 
discovery research activities.
Main topics covered are: virtual screening, ligand-based and structure-based 
drug design, bio- and cheminformatics, molecular dynamics simulation, drug 
delivery modelling, systems biology and biotech drug design. The 
functionalities of tools developed in academic groups and from the main 
software providers will be explored based on tutorials and more important on 
case studies taken from ongoing research.

Use the “bring your own problems” option to directly apply your newly acquired 
knowledge to your own research, profit from specific advice by the experts and 
other participants and contribute to innovative approaches for all case studies.

[ccp4bb] 3-year Postdoc/Assistant Professor Fellowship in GPCR crystallography and cryo-EM

2018-07-24 Thread Jette Sandholm Jensen Kastrup
To apply the following link needs to be used: 
https://candidate.hr-manager.net/ApplicationForm/SinglePageApplicationForm.aspx?cid=1307=19005=147584=4638
(an email will not be considered)

Deadline: 15 August 2018


The UCPH Receptor Structural Biology Group (Kastrup group) and Computational 
Drug Design Group (Gloriam group), Department of Drug Design and Pharmacology, 
University of Copenhagen wish to employ a joint Post Doc in G protein-coupled 
receptor (GPCR) crystallography. The position starts 1. September 2018 or soon 
thereafter (latest Jan 1st) and lasts for 3 years.

Groups
Professor Jette Sandholm Kastrup, UCPH 
(http://drug.ku.dk/research/biostructural_research/)
 has a strong track record of producing receptor crystal structures (~100 
receptor structures deposited in the Protein Data Bank). She has a strong 
international network with leading medicinal chemists and pharmacologists.

The Gloriam group 
(www.gloriamgroup.org)
 conducts computational drug design, tightly integrated with leading chemists 
and pharmacologists, and structure-function studies of G protein-coupled 
receptors (GPCRs) – one of the largest drug target families. The group has in 
the last two years published in e.g. Nature, Cell, Nature Reviews in Drug 
Discovery, Nature Chemistry and Nucleic Acids Research.

Project
This Post Doc fellowships is one of five that will take part in an ambitious 
interdisciplinary project spanning chemistry, pharmacology, structural biology, 
computational drug design and scientific database development. It is supported 
by the Novo Nordisk Foundation (Hallas-Møller Ascending Investigator) and 
headed by David Gloriam. The project focuses on GPCR biased signalling to 
illuminate the pathways to function and disease.

The overall objective of the project is to establish a joint public platform to 
consolidate the GPCR signalling field, and to identify novel mechanisms and 
ligands of biological and therapeutic relevance. The Post Doc within 
crystallography/cryo-EM will focus on (preferably biased) agonist complexes 
with the Free Fatty Acid 4 (FFA4) receptor, as well as other receptors for 
which structures are known but none with biased agonists. GPCR crystallisation 
requires comprehensive construct engineering to achieve optimal protein 
stability, expression in both insect and mammalian cells, homogeneity and 
crystal packing. The quality of the constructs will be evaluated based on the 
receptor yield and aggregate/monomer ratio (size-exclusion chromatography), as 
well as the thermostability (thermoshift assay). Crystallisation trials will 
benefit from our new state-of-the-art Crystal Gryphon LCP robot capable of 
efficiently screening numerous construct-condition combinations. Cryo-EM 
studies will take advantage of new state-of-the-art core facilities in Denmark.

Qualification requirements  Mandatory requirements

  *   A PhD degree within structural biology
  *   Solid experience with expression and purification of membrane proteins
  *   Demonstrated ability to independently learn new concepts and solve 
biological problems
  *   Excellent communication skills: fluency in English and experience in 
writing scientific texts

Additional meriting qualifications  Experience of, and skills in:

  *   G protein-coupled receptors
  *   Protein crystallography/cryo-EM
  *   Analysis of molecular structures and interactions
  *   Experience with crystallographic software packages

General job description   Your key tasks as a Post Doctorial fellow at the 
Faculty are to:

  *   Manage and carry through your research project
  *   Write scientific articles
  *   Participate in the education and guidance of students

Additional requirements to be hired as an assistant professor
To be hired in the assistant professor the applicant should already have done a 
postdoc, supervised PhD students and have additional qualifications to document 
progression towards a competitive career (high-impact publications, own grants 
etc.). Employment as assistant professor includes teaching obligations and the 
possibility to upgrade pedagogical qualifications.

Key criteria for the assessment of applicants

  *   Professional qualifications relevant to the project
  *   Relevant work experience
  *   Publications
  *   Other professional activities
  *   Language skills
  *   Good interpersonal skills

Terms of employment
The post will be filled according to the Agreement between the Danish Ministry 
of Finance and the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations. The post 
is covered by the Protocol on Job Structure.
