[3dem] PhD and Postdoc Positions at the Center for Chromosome Stability, University of Copenhagen

Fri Jul 2 08:42:08 PDT 2021

Dear all,

I am excited to announce that PhD and Postdoc positions are now available in my new group at the DNRF Center for Chromosome Stability (CCS) at the University of Copenhagen. Our group aims to understand how eukaryotic genome stability is maintained during chromosome replication. In particular, we aim to determine the molecular mechanisms by which the replication machinery overcomes obstacles on eukaryotic chromosomes that might otherwise prevent replication fork progression. As well as conventional molecular biology and biochemistry, we utilise time-resolved, high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and a new approach we call ‘RECONstitution in SILico’ (RECONSIL) to visualize key steps in DNA replication and repair. An example of this approach is described in the recent study of the replicative MCM helicase loading (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.nature.com_articles_s41586-2D019-2D1768-2D0&d=DwIF-g&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=L7-zyQ-04fFCMRqzLIOnx7H0exGZHwIQe_wMPuY600I&m=b3PRaIqJH-s2lmV0kqbKlwlckxzbLM4LGK_51Rj2ud8&s=Fk-_9ZpyL9ejGG9_hRlGcGWddrxteeZnUXO84xjmnZY&e= <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com_-3Furl-3Dhttps-253A-252F-252Fwww.nature.com-252Farticles-252Fs41586-2D019-2D1768-2D0-26data-3D04-257C01-257C-257C1e27a2b26cfa4089582408d93d6a1162-257C4eed7807ebad415aa7a99170947f4eae-257C0-257C1-257C637608348035160113-257CUnknown-257CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0-253D-257C3000-26sdata-3DrU-252FGHcpcG35pYBxuCRaapW-252F69oLbFwcrhPycgUFAPJs-253D-26reserved-3D0&d=DwIF-g&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=L7-zyQ-04fFCMRqzLIOnx7H0exGZHwIQe_wMPuY600I&m=b3PRaIqJH-s2lmV0kqbKlwlckxzbLM4LGK_51Rj2ud8&s=uIIu5oxt8Uv15haWLHu9IpmAi0Q73eP6dpN5Z0toVWc&e= >).

The new recruits will benefit from joining the vibrant and collaborative community of genome biology researchers at the CCS and University of Copenhagen. As well as dedicated training in techniques mentioned above, the recruited candidates will have access to cutting-edge electron microscopy facilities including Titan Krios and Glacios microscopes through the Core Facility for Integrated Microscopy (CFIM; https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.cfim.ku.dk_&d=DwIF-g&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=L7-zyQ-04fFCMRqzLIOnx7H0exGZHwIQe_wMPuY600I&m=b3PRaIqJH-s2lmV0kqbKlwlckxzbLM4LGK_51Rj2ud8&s=PWcl1wjsx_Cf3cOGNnlNcAoot5B4a08e4a09iwvh1is&e= <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com_-3Furl-3Dhttp-253A-252F-252Fwww.cfim.ku.dk-252F-26data-3D04-257C01-257C-257C1e27a2b26cfa4089582408d93d6a1162-257C4eed7807ebad415aa7a99170947f4eae-257C0-257C1-257C637608348035160113-257CUnknown-257CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0-253D-257C3000-26sdata-3Dmg51qPo-252F9MXM08Zw-252F24-252B1Jz87NSlt1bmw8PFLsC-252FT-252BU-253D-26reserved-3D0&d=DwIF-g&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=L7-zyQ-04fFCMRqzLIOnx7H0exGZHwIQe_wMPuY600I&m=b3PRaIqJH-s2lmV0kqbKlwlckxzbLM4LGK_51Rj2ud8&s=GD6Us5enCRUOkbagEcN2M6xDAL6Zb1bytu3IzkDKf9g&e= >).

Copenhagen offers an outstanding quality of life and both positions come with highly competitive salaries.

Motivated candidates with an interest in genome stability, eukaryotic DNA replication and/or cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) are encouraged to apply. Whilst a background in structural biology is desirable, it is not strictly required. For full details of the positions, please see the relevant adverts below:
