[3dem] Job posting: 2 postdocs and 1 Technical Specialist - ERC Advanced Grant project T6S-PoreMech

[David albesa-jove]

Dear all,

Apologies for cross-posting.

We are looking for three researchers to join our laboratory at Instituto
Biofisika (Bilbao, Spain), funded by the ERC Advanced Grant project
T6S-PoreMech, which combines single-particle cryo-EM, membrane protein
biochemistry, and single-channel electrophysiology to resolve the
architecture of Type VI secretion system pore-forming toxins.

- Postdoc 1 - Biophysics and toxin function: in vivo and in vitro
functional characterisation of T6SS pore-forming toxins.
- Postdoc 2 - Cryo-EM and structural biology: high-resolution structures of
active toxin pores in nanodiscs and of toxin-immunity complexes.
- Technical specialist - Protein biochemistry: expression and purification
of challenging bacterial membrane proteins and pore-forming toxins, and
support across all project pillars.

Conditions: 2-year contracts, renewable for up to 2 additional years.
Competitive salary. Start date from 2027 (flexible). Applications are
reviewed on a rolling basis from 1 September 2026 until the positions are
filled.

To apply, send a single PDF with cover letter, CV including full
publication list, and contact details for 2-3 referees to
davidalbesa at gmail.com, subject line "ERC T6S-PoreMech - [Position Name]".
