Louise Johnson Fellowship: Excellent Research Position for a Female Postdoc
How do the elementary particles of nature move? Can atoms, molecules and electrons in matter be controlled and driven with precision – on all length and energy scales? These questions indicate some of the biggest and most exciting challenges of modern science - and the central objective of The Hamburg Centre for Ultrafast Imaging (CUI): The analysis of fundamental chemical and physical processes in Photon and Nano Science.
A renowned professor of Molecular Biophysics (University of Oxford) and pioneer of protein crystallography, Louise Johnson had an international role in advising on the exploitation of synchrotron radiation for biological research.
In honor of Louise Johnson’s achievements, CUI has installed a
• two-year fellowship
• for a female postdoctoral research associate
• performing research in one of CUI’s Young Scientist Groups
• as of fall 2013.
The key enabling features of the research are the ultrabright x-ray and electron sources on the Hamburg Bahrenfeld Campus. To investigate and evaluate the highly complex processes of CUI’s research tasks, it is essential to combine the expertise of scientists in physics, chemistry, medicine and biology. Therefore scientific teams of Universität Hamburg cooperate with teams of Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DESY), the European XFEL GmbH (XFEL), the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), and the Max Planck Research Department for Structural Dynamics at Universität Hamburg (MPSD). The Centre is funded within the Excellence Initiative by the German Federal and State Governments.
