Postdoctoral Positions in Computational Biophysics
Posted on 9/12/2008
Several postdoctoral research positions are now available in the Theoretical Molecular Biophysics group at the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics, Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The successful candidates will utilize molecular simulations and other computational approaches in the areas of structural immunology, signaling and/or membrane proteins.
Candidates are expected to have a doctoral degree in (bio)chemistry or molecular (bio)physics. A basic understanding of protein structure and physical chemistry is absolutely required. Training and experience with molecular simulation methods are also essential. The following are not required but would be advantageous: the capacity to improve or develop simulation methodologies; scientific programming skills; experience with force-field development via quantum-mechanical and/or statistical methods.
The Max Planck Institute of Biophysics and its neighboring institutions in Frankfurt am Main provide a world-class environment for research into the structure and function of biomolecules and macromolecular complexes, with great potential for interdisciplinary collaborations. The working language of the Institute is English. The Max Planck Society strongly encourages applications from qualified female scientists, as well as from individuals with disabilities.
These positions will be available immediately. Interested individuals should contact Dr José Faraldo-Gómez by email, at jose.faraldo -at- mpibp-frankfurt.mpg.de. Please attach a full curriculum vitae, publication list and contact details for 2-3 referees.
