The Helmholtz Association, the Freie Universität Berlin and the Humboldt Universität zu Berlin are operating three experimental stations for bio-macromolecular crystallography at BESSY, one of the world's most modern synchrotron radiation sources for VUV and soft X-rays. The Department of Biology, Chemistry and Pharmacy of the Freie Universität Berlin is seeking a Post Doctoral Research Assistant to support operation of the BESSY bio-macromolecular crystallography beamlines (headed by Dr. Uwe Mueller), participate in graduate student education and to conduct research at the Laboratory for Structural Biochemistry (headed by Prof. Dr. Markus Wahl) of the Freie Universität Berlin. We are initially offering a three-year contract with the possibility for an extension. The salary will be based on German Federal BAT-IIa (i.d.F.d. Anw.-TV FUB). The position is immediately available. The successful candidate will support beamline users in data collection and analysis, participate in the development, implementation and commissioning of beamline instrumentation, collaborate closely with the structural biochemistry community in Berlin and pursue his/her own research program in the fields of RNA-based macromolecular machines or membrane receptors. Applicants should hold a Ph.D. in the biological, chemical or physical sciences and have a strong background in all aspects of bio-macromolecular crystallography, in particular in the use of the relevant computer programs. The position also requires the documented ability to conduct independent research as well as excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
