Post-doctoral Researcher - Structural Dynamics of Biomolecular Systems
Post-doctoral Researcher - Structural Dynamics of Biomolecular Systems
Max Planck Society
Hamburg, Germany
Your position
You will be developing and implementing algorithms to process single particle X-ray diffraction data from XFELs to unravel the structural dynamics of biomolecular systems. The project is funded by the Röntgen Ångström Cluster and is organised in collaboration with teams in the University of Gothenburg, University of Hamburg and Deutsches Elektronen Synchrotron (DESY). In addition to theoretical/algorithmic work, you will be participating in, and later leading, international experimental collaborations to make measurements at the European XFEL in Hamburg, but also other facilities worldwide.
Your qualification
You must have a university degree in a relevant subject plus a PhD in topics related to physics, chemistry or structural biology. Prior experience in one or more of the following is beneficial:
- Coherent X-ray diffraction or macromolecular crystallography
- XFEL experiments or other experiments with large scale data analysis
- Python programming
We expect candidates to be fluent in English, which is the working language in the group and with collaborators.
