[3dem] Post-Doc position available in Orsay (University of Paris)

[Françoise Livolant]

Dear all,


A post-doctoral position is available immediately at the Laboratoire de 
Physique des Solides (University Paris XI) to study DNA-DNA interactions 
and DNA conformation in confined and condensed state. We are 
particularly interested in the structure of DNA inside the bacteriophage 
capsid in vivo and in vitro. The project includes bacteriophage and 
bacterial receptor protein purification, and imaging and analysis by 
cryo-electron microscopy, cryo-electron microscopy of vitreous sections 
(CEMOVIS) and cryo-electron tomography. The candidate will join a 
multidisciplinary team including physicists and biologists specialized 
in DNA, with expertise in cryoTEM and Xray diffraction.


The  candidate should have a PhD or equivalent in structural biology or 
biophysics and previous experience in cryoelectron microscopy and/or 
virus and protein purification.

Applications including a CV, statement of interests and the names of two 
references should be send to francoise.livolant at u-psud.fr 
<mailto:francoise.livolant at u-psud.fr>, 
(http://www.lps.u-psud.fr/spip.php?article2150).
