Postdoctoral Fellowships
- EMBL Heidelberg
**The Dodonova group **at EMBL Heidelberg **is looking for a postdoc with a biochemistry and/or structural biology background to investigate the 3D organization of archaeal chromatin and the role of histone tails. This position is funded by the HFSP Early Career Research Grant.**
Your role
The project involves a combination of biochemistry, biophysics, and structural biology work. Structural part of the project will involve cryo-EM single particle analysis of nucleosomes, as well as FIB-milling of archaeal cells, and cryo electron tomography (cryo-ET) and subtomogram averaging of chromatin fibres.
Moreover, this project is a close collaboration with the laboratory of Naomichi Takemata (Kyoto University), and will involve regular communication and scientific exchange with the collaborators.
**Closing date**: 31 July 2024
Contract duration: 3 years
Grading: Stipend
Reference number: HD02627
You have
- PhD in structural biology, molecular biology, biochemistry, or related disciplines (or you are close to finishing your PhD).
- Experience in cryo-EM/cryo-ET data acquisition and processing.
- Experience in biochemistry (protein expression & purification, DNA-protein complex characterization).
- Confidence in working via command line.
- Strong interest in the research topic, high motivation and commitment.
- Ability to work independently and creatively, in an international team with a highly collaborative atmosphere.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills, fluency in English.
You might also have
- Experience in microbiology and handling of anaerobic microorganisms.
- Basic programming skills.
- Familiarity with HPC computing.
