Theoretical and Computational Biophysics: Postdoctoral position 1653 views

The Computational Biomolecular Dynamics Research Group within the Department of Theoretical and Computational Biophysics at the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry invite applications for Postdoc position (Code number 20-17) for the project Collective Dynamics Underlying Protein Allostery.

About the position:

• The lab has made significant recent progress in deciphering collective motions underlying allosteric transitions in protein-protein recognition as well as cooperativity in substrate binding.
• The objective is to investigate how widespread the identified mechanisms are and thus to answer the question if these represent a generally employed class of allostery.

Requiremnets:

• Applicant must have interest in computational molecular biophysics and skills in structural biology, physical chemistry, statistical mechanics and Biocomputing
• Applicant must hold PhD degree in any of these or a related field.

Duration: 2-years with a possible extension

Remuneration: payment and benefits are based on the German TVöD guidelines.

Application:

Application must include:

• Cover letter explaining background and motivation
• CV
• Publication record (if applicable)
• All material to be as one single PDF file
• Applications to be sent via e-mail to ausschreibung20-17@mpibpc.mpg.de
