[ccp4bb] CBMS WORKBENCH - SAXS and MX - October 11 - 13, 2021

2021-09-28 Thread Stojanoff, Vivian 
Dear All,

You are cordially invited to participate in the Center for Biomolecular 
Structure workbenches on solution scattering and macromolecular 
crystallography. Registration is open for the October 11 through 13, 2021 
session and is free.

https://www.bnl.gov/cbmsworkbench/

Choose between workbenches or select both and learn of alternative structure 
determination methods. Participants will have the opportunity to send samples 
to measure during the workbench. Data analysis will be shared. If you are 
planning to send samples, make sure to register early to obtain the necessary 
credentials for remote access to the beam lines.


Invited Speakers:

- Elspeth Garman (University of Oxford)
- Al Kikhney (Xenocs Nordic ApS.)
- Kay Diederichs (Universitaet Konstanz)
- Dorothee  Liebschner (Berkeley Lab)
- Vukica Srajer (University of Chicago
- Maria Bewley (Penn State)
- Kevin Battaile (NY Structural Biology Center)
- Sean McSweeney (Center for Biomolecular Structure, BNL)

To register follow the link:

https://www.bnl.gov/cbmsworkbench/

Registration is a two-step process if you are not a BNL guest. If you have a 
BNL guest appointment you need only to register for the workbenches.

Kind regards

Vivian

[ccp4bb] PhD position, University Bayreuth

2021-09-28 Thread Michael Weyand 

Ph.D. student position in protein biochemistry and crystallography

We are looking for a highly motivated Ph.D. student for our protein 
biochemistry and crystallography laboratory at the Dept. of Biochemistry 
at University Bayreuth, Germany. We use protein crystallography and a 
variety of biochemical and biophysical methods for the structural and 
mechanistic characterization of cellular signalling systems with 
relevance to aging mechanisms and aging-related diseases. We then aim to 
develop small molecule modulators that exploit the identified signalling 
mechanisms. The PhD project will target soluble adenylyl cyclase, for 
exemplary publications see Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 111:3727-32; Nat Chem 
Biol. 12:838-44; ACS Med Chem Lett. 12:1283-1287


Our laboratory is located in a new building at the University of 
Bayreuth, Germany and equipped with state-of-the-art facilities for 
protein biochemistry, x-ray crystallography, and mass spectrometry. We 
offer excellent research opportunities and a stimulating environment for 
research in structural biology. The position is open immediately, salary 
base is TV-L E13/2.
The ideal candidate is a highly motivated student with strong interest 
in structural biology and prior experience in protein biochemistry. 
Additional experience in molecular biology and/or protein 
crystallization would be an asset.
Applications from handicapped persons will be favored when all other 
qualifications are equal. The University of Bayreuth is an equal 
opportunity employer and we therefore especially encourage women to apply.


Applications (including CV, research experience, and two names and 
contact information for references) should be sent as a PDF or by mail to

email:  sekretariat.bioche...@uni-bayreuth.de

Re: [ccp4bb] post-doc position at KU Leuven, ligand-gated ion channels

2021-09-28 Thread Chris Ulens 
A post-doctoral position is available at the Laboratory of Prof. Chris Ulens, 
KU Leuven, Belgium (http://www.xtal.be ). The research in 
the Laboratory of Structural Neurobiology is aimed at understanding the 
molecular mechanism of ligand-gated ion channels. Our methods rely on X-ray 
crystallography and cryo-EM in combination with electrophysiological recordings 
and fluorescence-based techniques. Our laboratory hosts an integrated 
macromolecular crystallization facility with a Mosquito crystallization robot 
and two RockImagers. We have access to a 200 kV Glacios microscope on campus as 
well as 300 kV JEOL CryoARM300 at the nearby EM facility in Brussels. Current 
projects are situated at the crossroads of structural elucidation and drug 
discovery of different pentameric ligand-gated ion channels.

We would like to recruit a post-doc with prior experience in cryo-EM or X-ray 
crystallography of membrane proteins. The position is open immediately and 
applications will be accepted until the position is filled. Applicants are 
requested to submit a CV with publication list and two references. E-mail to 
chris.ul...@kuleuven.be
