🧑🔬🧑🎓 PhD позиция, распространить информацию о которой попросила моя коллега и одногруппница.
❗️ Рекомендует лабораторию.
🔻 Лаборатория ищет (хороших) студентов, кто хочет в аспирантуру в Брюссель работать с cryoEM на липидных транспортерах.
Are you interested in cryo-EM and membrane proteins? WE ARE HIRING! Opening for a PhD position to work on the structure and function of human lipid transporters at VIB-VUB Center for Structural Biology in Brussels, Belgium.
✔️ What we offer
VIB is an excellence-based entrepreneurial institute that focuses on translating basic scientific results into pharmaceutical, agricultural and industrial applications. VIB Center for Structural Biology Brussels is associated to the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) and houses research groups with a strong expertise in protein biochemistry, biophysics, nanobody technology, X-ray crystallography, NMR and electron microscopy.
▪️ Our group is interested in the structure and function of mammalian lipid transporters and in the membrane biology of the cell. In another line of research, we study the biophysics of ion channels of the endomembrane system and their role in neurodegenerative or neurological diseases such as Parkinson Disease. To advance our understanding in these fields we combine functional characterization (liposomal and cellular assays, fluorescence microscopy, electrophysiology) with a structural description of the involved proteins using cryo-EM and X-ray crystallography. Further details on available topics will be discussed during the interviews.
▪️ You will have access to state-of-the-art research facilities such as the VIB-VUB facility for Bio Electron Cryogenic Microscopy equipped with a 300 kV JEOL cryoARM300 electron microscope and K3 detector as well as the VIB Nanobody Core.
▪️ PhD students will have access to an extensive scientific and transferable skills training programs available through our affiliated institutes.
🔜 Start of the PhD student position can be negotiated, but ideally October or November 2021.
📍 PhD students are further encouraged to apply for an FWO-fellowship to acquire their own funding (call deadline March 2022). Candidates will be assisted for the funding application.
✔️ Your profile
You are an enthusiastic, highly motivated and curiosity-driven personality with a strong background in biochemistry/biology/biotechnology and an interest in membrane proteins and organelle biology. Independent and critical thinking and good organizational skills are a prerequisite. You hold a university degree in biochemistry/biology or in a related discipline. Hands-on experience with either protein purification, cryo-EM or mammalian cell culture is required.
