Postdoc position in NMR-based mechanistic biochemistry

Employer

Aarhus University

Location

Denmark (DK)

Salary

Competitive

Closing date

Aug 14, 2024

Expected start date and duration of employment

This is a 2.5–year position from 1 October 2024 or as soon possible thereafter.

Job description

The position will focus on experimental determination of mechanisms underlying the regulation of FoxO3 by phosphorylation. Two main aspects will be investigated, namely the regulation of co-activator binding and DNA interactions.

You will establish protocols and prepare specifically phosphorylated samples of FoxO3, and perform NMR, biophysical and cell biology experiments. The focus can be put on advanced chemical biology routes or advanced dynamics NMR experiments, depending on your interests.

If your interests align, you will contribute to the development of novel tailored NMR methods. You will work closely with international collaborators, including through a research stay abroad at IBS Grenoble or Brown University.

You will present your research at local and international conferences.

Your profile

Applicants should hold a PhD in structural biology, chemical biology or similar.

Applicants must have good skills in English (oral and written) and be independent, creative, and dependable.

Applicants should have several publications in internationally recognized peer-reviewed journals, experience in presenting their work and strong personal and team-work skills. Demonstrated experience working in large collaborative environments and contributing to lab management is a plus.

Priority will be given to applicants with a previous experience in NMR OR chemical biology approaches to protein phosphorylation.

Application procedure

Shortlisting is used. This means that after the deadline for applications – and with the assistance from the assessment committee chairman, and the appointment committee if necessary, – the head of department selects the candidates to be evaluated. All applicants will be notified whether or not their applications have been sent to an expert assessment committee for evaluation. The selected applicants will be informed about the composition of the committee, and each applicant is given the opportunity to comment on the part of the assessment that concerns him/her self. Once the recruitment process is completed a final letter of rejection is sent to the deselected applicants.
