<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) in Physical Chemistry to work on a research project under the supervision of
Professor Stephan Rauschenbach for a period of up to 12 months with the possibility of an extention to 24 month. The research topic is titled ‘Native preparative mass spectrometry and protein imaging by cryoEM’.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Based on native electrospray ion beam deposition (ES-IBD) the project involves developing new preparation methods for the investigation molecular structure
at the atomic level. To validate our novel methods with biomedical relevant applications we seek a PDRA to join the experimental team, focusing on the imaging of proteins and protein complexes with cryoEM enabled by ESIBD. The role will focus on cryoEM imaging
and data processing with the top-of-line cryoEM instrumentation present at the University of Oxford with the goal to apply and optimise the novel ESIBD-cryoEM workflow.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
