[3dem] two positions available in computational electron cryo-microscopy

[martyn.winn at stfc.ac.uk]

The Research Complex at Harwell, Oxfordshire, UK hosts a growing number of computational scientists supporting a wide range of structural biology research. We have two vacancies for enthusiastic scientists with experience of computational methods to join the group. You will join one of two projects, both concerned with exploiting the recent growth in the application of electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) to structural and cellular biology. 

Post 1: The European infrastructure project BioMedBridges (http://www.biomedbridges.eu) is constructing an e-infrastructure to allow interoperability between data and services in the biological, medical, translational and clinical domains. This post will contribute to Work Package 9 of Biomedbridges, which is a Use Case illustrating sharing of cryoEM data between structural biologists and biological database providers. You will create software for analysing, comparing and annotating cryoEM maps, in collaboration with developers at the EBI.

Post 2: We seek an experienced scientist with an interest in software development, to work alongside the current project developer, on the Collaborative Computational Project for cryoEM (http://www.ccpem.ac.uk). You will be responsible for developing the CCP-EM software suite, in collaboration with application developers in the consortium, as well as developing and promoting community standards.

Both posts will be located at the Research Complex at Harwell, within the Computational Biology group of Martyn Winn in the Scientific Computing Department of STFC. Further information is available online (see http://www.ccpem.ac.uk/positions.php and links to TopCareer site), and informal enquiries may be made to Martyn Winn martyn.winn at stfc.ac.uk
