A Postdoc position is available in my group, in collaboration with Christian Betzel and Henry Chapman at DESY (deadline April 20th). The fellowship (with good salary) is for a period of up to 3 years, and the starting date no later than 01.10.2014 (preferably earlier). For instructions on how to apply, please see: http://uio.easycruit.com/vacancy/1149361/64291?iso=no Job/ project description: A postdoctoral research fellowship within the research area “Glycans in human health and disease” is available at the Department of Chemistry. The project will be in the field of membrane protein crystallography, with a focus on protein-carbohydrate interactions of medically relevant systems. It fits well within the Department’s and University’s Life Science strategy and is connected to a consortium of glycobiology groups in the broader Oslo area (http://www.mn.uio.no/ibv/english/research/groups/glyconor/), but also involves strong international collaborations. Further details concerning the project will be discussed and agreed on before project start. The work will be pursued in state-of-the-art laboratories in Oslo and Hamburg (DESY) and involve data collection at the X-ray Free Electron Laser in Stanford, in collaboration with Christian Betzel and Henry Chapman. The candidate should be determined to enter a challenging project, like to work independently, but also be a good team-player. She/he should preferentially have experience in all aspects of protein crystallographic work, including solid practical experience in protein purification and crystallization. Experience with membrane proteins is a clear advantage. The candidate is further expected to actively take part in the maintenance of the X-ray equipment and crystallographic software.
