Postdoc position protein crystallography, Heinrich-Heine-University, Düsseldorf, Germany


The Center for Structural Studies (CSS) is a central scientific research and service facility of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Science at the Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf (www.css.hhu.de). The CSS aims for scientific tasks within all areas of structure-supplying methods at an atomic level. The CSS provides all steps as full-service as well as access to our infrastructure and scientific support for the individual experiments of all members of the HHU and external users.

In particular:
- X-ray diffraction analysis and structure determination (MX) of proteins (in house and at synchrotrons) - Small-Angle-X-ray-Scattering-Analysis (SAXS) of proteins and all kinds of complexes thereof (in house and at synchrotrons)
- Molecular Modelling and Simulation for macro- and micromolecules

In support of the MX unit we offer a postdoc position within a BMBF (Federal Ministry of Education and Research) founded project for an experienced person (100 %, EG 13 TV-L/TVöD-Bund) for 3 years, to be filled as soon as possible.

Your Qualifications
- degree in Biochemistry, Biology or a related field and a PhD ideally in X-ray protein crystallography
- ideally several PDB-depositions and related publications
- good work experience in protein biochemistry, crystallization and X-ray crystallography - good knowledge of software packages employed in protein crystallography (esp. XDS, CCP4, coot) is a must - good communication skills and like to work in a multi-disciplinary team

Key Responsibilities
all types of crystallographic activities, including:
- planning and performing crystallization experiments
- collecting X-ray diffraction data (in-house generator and synchrotron beamlines)
- processing diffraction data, including phasing (mainly MR)
- refining protein structures following the quality criteria
- presenting the results

According to the applicant’s personal qualification, employment will be based on EG 13 TV-L / EG 13 TVöD-Bund. Qualified candidates should send their complete application (cover letter, curriculum vitae, contact info of two references, certificates) until 15.02.2020 by e-mail (one single pdf-file <5MB) to css@hhu.de.

We are looking forward to your joining of our team!
