** We are looking for a Beamline Scientist for the Swiss Light Source * *
The Paul Scherrer Institut is a centre for multi-disciplinary research
and one of the world’s leading user laboratories. With its 1200
employees it belongs as an autonomous institution to the Swiss ETH
domain and concentrates its activities on solid-state research and
material sciences, elementary particle physics, energy and environmental
research as well as on biology and medicine.
The Swiss Light Source (SLS) is one of the most advanced radiation
sources worldwide. The SLS operates two high performance undulator beam
lines for protein crystallography and has recently started the
commissioning of a state-of-the-art bending magnet beamline. The
Macromolecular Crystallography group is involved in several aspects of
protein crystallography including the design and construction of new
beamline components as well as various structural biology projects.
We are looking for a Beamline Scientist for the Bending Magnet Beamline
X06DA
/Your tasks/
You will be responsible for the further development and automation of
the bending magnet beamline X06DA at the SLS, in close collaboration
with the MX-group as well as be involved in the beamline operation. The
position offers the opportunity to develop an independent scientific
research programme in the field of protein crystallography or protein
crystallographic methods development including the supervision of PhD
students and postdocs. The infrastructure of the PSI structural biology
group will be available for you to pursue your own crystallographic
research projects.
/Your profile/
You hold a Ph.D. degree in biology or (bio-) chemistry and have several
years of experience in either protein crystallography or related
beamline instrumentation. Knowledge of high throughput crystallisation
techniques would be of advantage. If you are a good team player with
fine communication skills and sense of responsibility, this position
will offer a great opportunity for you to develop your research career
in an exciting and highly multidisciplinary environment.
We are looking forward to your application.
