Dear all,
A postdoc position is available in my group at Uppsala University, Sweden. The postdoc will work on a multidisciplinary and exploratory project aiming to understand the structure, function and evolution of “giant” extracellular proteins from Lactobacillus kunkeei, the main bacterium in the honey gut of bees. In this project we aim to understand their structure, function and evolution, but also to learn about general principles of how structures evolve.This will involve a combination of a wide range of structural and biophysical techniques and a tight collaboration with the group of Siv Andersson.
The successful candidate should have a PhD and experience of protein expression and purification and one or several structural and biophysical techniques such as crystallography, cryo-EM, SAXS and CD.
The postdoc is funded by a 2-year fellowship from the Carl Trygger foundation.
Further details and application instructions are found here: https://www.icm.uu.se/digitalAssets/913/c_913194-l_1-k_postdoc_2021-2_cts.pdf
The position will be filled as soon as possible.
Best regards
Maria
