Dear colleagues,
My group has a postdoc opening - deadline 8 February. I'd be happy if you could forward this message to people with relevant background in your community (or apply yourself if you are that person!).

The project will likely contain a good dose of cryo-ET and RNA virus replication, but we are actively encouraging talented and ambitious candidates with alternative backgrounds and their own ideas of how to approach the questions. In the framework of a large collaborative grant, we are working together with groups that have skillsets ranging from animal models to live-cell fluorescence imaging and mathematical modelling. This network could co-host postdocs who have interests beyond my group's core expertise.

When it comes to virology and cryo-EM, we are well equipped with BSL2 labs and a local cryo-EM facility that has e.g. a Titan Krios and Aquilos2 at BSL2 level.

We initially offer a two-year fellowship, with good possibilities for extension well beyond that time.

Feel free to get in touch with me in case of questions. There's more info on our lab website:
