[3dem] Postdoctoral position on Bacterial Warfare - eBIC, Diamond Light Source Ltd, UK

[Davies, Karen (DLSLtd,RAL,LSCI)]

Dear All,

We are excited to announce that eBIC, (UK's national cryoEM user facility) has an opening for a highly self-motivated postdoctoral scientist to study the molecular basis of target cell recognition used by bacterial warfare complexes. The successful candidate should have a strong background in molecular cloning, protein purification and protein structure determination using either X-ray crystallography or cryoEM. The project aims to develop high-throughput structural determination pipelines to assess how changes in tail fibre sequences affect receptor binding specificity.

The successful applicant will have full access to all the state-of-the-art lab equipment located at RCaH<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.rc-2Dharwell.ac.uk_&d=DwIFAg&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=L7-zyQ-04fFCMRqzLIOnx7H0exGZHwIQe_wMPuY600I&m=k0gJDYv3fvf0aBDGCGhqmCBdpees27Ut1fQr4m0QCNK-yywoQmuYAejRrQSEiXsf&s=4fw89TJsB9mMH-QSfJLs9UovKH8YEXZk1-In660Wzpo&e= > and the electron cryo-microscopes at eBIC<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.diamond.ac.uk_Instruments_Biological-2DCryo-2DImaging_eBIC.html&d=DwIFAg&c=-35OiAkTchMrZOngvJPOeA&r=L7-zyQ-04fFCMRqzLIOnx7H0exGZHwIQe_wMPuY600I&m=k0gJDYv3fvf0aBDGCGhqmCBdpees27Ut1fQr4m0QCNK-yywoQmuYAejRrQSEiXsf&s=MujR5vv2u620_6aKgrzi8BxgxYP8kyQEBjd4McfNZzI&e= >. In addition, they will be able to access different beamlines at Diamond Light source including XCHem, B24, and the MX beamlines through the submission of in-house research proposals.
