Dear all,
There is an opening for a PostDoc position in my group. Funding is generously provided by an ERC Synergy Grant for the DynaPLIX project, wherein
we aim to understand the dynamics of protein ligand interaction via an integrative approach combining NMR-spectroscopy (Mikael Akke, Lund University, MD-simulations (Kresten Lindorff-Larssen, University of Copenhagen) and time-resolved crystallography (Eike
C. Schulz, UKE Hamburg).

Directly located on the DESY Campus (Petra-III synchrotron/EU-XFEL), we will be making ample use of our recently developed HARE and LAMA methods but also explore the foundations
of protein function via multi-dimensional crystallography. Further pushing technology and method development in the field I am also terribly excited about our most recent toy, the spitrobot
– a crystal-plunger that enables cryo-trapping with a time-resolution
in the ms domain.
Candidates interested in a PostDoc position, motivated to push the boundaries in time-resolved (serial) crystallography should reach out directly to me (ec.schulz@uke.de),
exciting projects are ahead.
