[Stefan Raunser]

PhD and PostDoc Position in Electron Cryo-Microscopy
The positions are available immediately in the newly established Department of Structural Biochemistry (Director: Stefan Raunser) and are initially limited to 3 years.
Job description: Our research focuses on structural and functional studies of macromolecular protein complexes by single particle electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM), X-ray crystallography, biochemical and biophysical methods. As part of a project that is funded by an ERC consolidator grant, the successful candidates will determine the structural organization of bacterial toxin complexes using cryo-EM.
Requirements: The successful PhD candidate holds an excellent diploma or master degree in biology, biochemistry, biophysics, physics or a related field of science. The PostDoc candidate has an excellent PhD in structural biology, biophysics or physics and previous experience in single particle electron cryo-microscopy.
