[ccp4bb] PhD position in electron crystallography



Dear all,

The Centre for X-ray Structure Analysis of the University of Vienna has an 
open PhD position in the field of chemical crystallography with electron 
diffraction with a focus on bioinorganic chemistry. 
The project connects directly to the recent results in electron 
crystallography published in Angewandte Chemie 
(https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201811318) and Acta Cryst D 
(https://doi.org/10.1107/S2059798319003942).

The project focuses on the interpretability of electron diffraction data as 
electrostatic potential. An experimental determination of the electrostatic 
potential of a crystal structure opens new approaches for various chemically 
relevant question, e.g. the protonation state, oxidation state of metal 
complexes, or the nature of halogen bonds. 

The project may include interesting collaborations with pharmaceutical and 
catalytic industry partners.

Applicants for this PhD position must have experience single crystal X-ray 
diffraction including crystallographic data processing, e.g. XDS, DIALS, or 
APEX/Proteum, as well as structure refinement of chemical structures with 
SHELXL, OLEX, or equivalent. Knowledge in computing is a plus.

Applicants should send a letter of motivation, their CV, and contact details 
of at least one reference to me.

Best regards,
Tim Gruene
