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
