Postdoctoral position for a protein biochemist/molecular biologist
A junior postdoctoral position is available to work on the molecular biology
and biochemistry of proteinases. The hosting place is the Proteolysis Lab of the
Molecular Biology Institute of Barcelona (IBMB) from the Spanish Research
Council (CSIC) in Barcelona (Spain). The IBMB is located within the premises of
the Barcelona Science Park (PCB), one of the major poles for excellence in research
in the Barcelona area.
The candidate must be extremely self-motivated and dedicated, be able to
work very hard independently but also to synergetically interact with other lab
members, and have a strong background and proven expertise in protein
biochemistry and molecular biology of proteins. Tasks will include cloning,
overexpression, and purification of proteins, as well as functional assays.
Initial funding for up to 15 months will be provided by the EU project
“AntiPathoGN”. Subsequently, the candidate will become a 12-month EU
Fellowship at Experienced Researcher level funded by the ITN Training Network
“Rapid”. For this reason, eligible candidates must have obtained the degree that
qualifies them to start a Ph.D. in their country less than four years ago. In
addition, applicants must have spent less than 12 months within the last three
years in Spain and only EU citizens can be considered at this time. Envisaged
starting date is November 1, 2011.
Interested persons should apply exclusively per e-mail and send a detailed
CV, as well as a covering letter including motivation and contact details of three
referees, as soon as possible to F. Xavier Gomis-Rüth (xgrcri@ibmb.csic.es).
