Job Description

Missions

Study of Biomolecular Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS)

Activity

The project aims at developing experimental and analytical tools for the interpretation of Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) data measured on disordered proteins and functionalized proteins. With a computational focus, the candidate will collaborate with synthetic biologists to derive new structural information from complex and heterogeneous biomolecular systems.

Your Profil

Skills

The successful candidate should have a PhD in chemistry, biology or physics and a solid background in biomolecular Small-Angle Scattering (SAS) and computational approaches. Experience in protein production will be positively evaluated.

Your Work Environment

The position is funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR) is available at the “Highly Flexible Proteins” at the Centre de Biologie Structurale (CBS) in Montpellier (France).

The CBS is a dynamic research institute with an outstanding infrastructure covering all techniques for structural biology and biophysics including NMR, X-ray crystallography, cryo-electron microscopy, advanced fluorescence and super-resolution microscopes, single-molecule manipulation, molecular and cell biology, and high-performance computation.
Montpellier is a major biology area with a focus on basic research, biomedicine, plant biology and environmental science. Its science drive, the beauty of the region, its high quality of life, and the short commute to other major regional research areas (Paris, Barcelona, Toulouse, Marseille) make it an ideal destination for scientists from all over the world.

Constraints and risks

Interested candidates should deposit their CV with a cover letter describing their research interests and motivation, and the names of people willing to write a recommendation letter.
