Dear all,

We have extended the application deadline for two fully-funded open positions, one for a postdoctoral researcher and one for a PhD student, in our research group located at the University Medical
Center Göttingen and the Max-Planck-Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences in Göttingen, Germany.
Our team studies the structure and function of molecular machineries involved in gene expression in eukaryotic cells and organelles. We are particularly interested in the mechanisms underlying gene
expression in human mitochondria and how this process is embedded in the cellular context. To study this, we combine structural biology (single-particle cryo-electron microscopy, X-Ray crystallography and cryo-electron tomography) with biochemical, biophysical
and cell biological approaches to dissect mitochondrial processes from the atomic to the organellar scale. For examples on our research, see PMID: 34489609, 34135319, 33328633, 29149603 and 29033127.
We are a small and international team and are looking for enthusiastic, open-minded and ambitious team players to join us in our quest to understand mitochondrial molecular biology.

Feel free to contact me for any informal inquiries.
I would be very grateful if you could disseminate these ads to any candidates you believe may be interested!
Best,
Hauke Hillen
