Research Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our Structural Biology Group at the ESRF. The successful candidate will pursue a project aimed at proposing a new paradigm in macromolecular crystallography by focusing on room temperature data collection and embracing complementary biophysical approaches.

Project Overview

The project will study several fluorescent proteins using single-crystal room temperature MX, in crystallo optical spectroscopy (icOS), and high-pressure MX (HPMX). This integrated approach will provide a comprehensive picture of protein dynamics and help tune their properties.

Requirements

  • Enrolment for a PhD in biology, biophysics, or a closely related science
  • Background in structural biology or biophysical methods is desirable
  • Ability to interact within a multi-disciplinary team
  • Wide interest between instrumentation, methodology, and applied biological research
  • Proficiency in English (working language at the ESRF)

Working Conditions

The successful candidate will be enrolled in Université Grenoble Alpes / Chemistry & Life Doctoral School as a condition of their recruitment. A contract of two years renewable for one year will be offered.

What We Offer

  • Collaboration with global experts to advance science and address societal challenges
  • Opportunity to work in a vibrant city in the heart of the Alps, and Europe's Green Capital 2022
  • Competitive compensation and allowances package, including financial support for relocation to Grenoble
