Candidates must hold a PhD degree in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Biotechnology, Chemistry, Biomedicine or related disciplines.
The successful candidate must be skilled and experienced in heterologous protein expression in prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems (insect and mammalian cells), protein purification and initial biochemical/biophysical characterization (SEC-MALLS, DLS, circular dichroism, DSF, ITC, SPR), and sample preparation for structural studies (crystallization, specimen vitrification for cryo-electron microscopy). The Fundación Biofísica Bizkaia in Bilbao (Basque Country in Spain) invites applications for an immediately available job in protein expression, purification and characterization for structural studies at the Biofisika Institute (www.biofisika.org ).
The Biofisika Institute is a joint research center of the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). In close partnership with the Fundación Biofísica Bizkaia, the center focuses on fundamental and translational biophysics research and offers a highly collaborative culture. Accredited as a Basque Excellence Research Centre (BERC), the institute provides outstanding shared facilities for advanced biophysical and structural biology approaches in a new research building in the main Leioa campus of the UPV/EHU.
Description of the project and position offered
The successful candidate must be skilled and experienced in heterologous protein expression in prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems (insect and mammalian cells), protein purification and initial biochemical/biophysical characterization (SEC-MALLS, DLS, circular dichroism, DSF, ITC, SPR), and sample preparation for structural studies (crystallization, specimen vitrification for cryo-electron microscopy). Fluency in English, and strong communication and organizational skills will be important. Ability to work under pressure, prioritize, and multi-task will also be important.
Education and Experience Required
Candidates must hold a PhD degree in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Biotechnology, Chemistry, Biomedicine or related disciplines.
