Job description
Tätigkeitsprofil:
We investigate the structure, dynamics, and function of membrane proteins (e.g. potassium channels and rhomboid proteases) as well as supramolecular assemblies by an integrated structural biology approach focused on solid-state NMR and cryo-EM (see e.g. Bohg et al., Angew.Chem.Int.Ed. 2026; Qoraj et al., Nat. Commun. 2026; Xiao et al., Sci. Adv.2026). The PhD students will have the opportunity to learn how to produce membrane proteins using cell-free expression and to perform solid-state NMR as well as cryo-EM. The latter aspects will benefit tremendously from outstanding available infrastructure on campus including a 1.2GHz NMR spectrometer and a Titan Krios cryo-electron microscope
.
Anforderungsprofil:
Candidates with a background in (bio)chemistry, (bio)physics or related subjects and a strong interest in structural biology are encouraged to apply. Prior knowledge in (membrane) protein expression and purification, NMR spectroscopy, or cryo-EM is not required but would be an advantage.
