Dear all,
Posted on behalf of Peijun Zhang... THREE Wellcome Trust funded postdoctoral fellowships are available in Peijun Zhang lab at the University of Oxford (https://www.ndm.ox.ac.uk/prin cipal-investigators/researcher/peijun-zhang <https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ndm.ox.ac.uk%2Fprincipal-investigators%2Fresearcher%2Fpeijun-zhang&data=01%7C01%7Cpez7%40pitt.edu%7Cb5bf8d1aa6c348f9127008d4d0742b70%7C9ef9f489e0a04eeb87cc3a526112fd0d%7C1&sdata=ULgsh5XjsMz4y5LImz3X0EN89enjgb7ds1DVDtHaGMg%3D&reserved=0> ): 1) Structural mechanisms of HIV-1 restriction by capsid-sensing host proteins; 2) Correlative cryo super-resolution fluorescence microscopy and cryoET of HIV-1 and host interactions; 3) Structural mechanism of HIV-1 inhibition by SERINCs; Zhang lab combines structural methodologies, in particular cryoEM and cryoET, with biochemistry and functional studies, in conjunction with molecular-dynamics simulations, to gain new insights into the mechanisms of HIV-1 inhibition by host cell factors. The Division of Structural Biology in Oxford has excellent facilities for molecular and cellular cryoEM/ET and state-of-the-art cryo-fluorescence microscopy and high performance computing. We are also closely connected to the UK national cryoEM center, eBIC at the Diamond Light Source (http://www.diamond.ac.uk/Scie nce/Integrated-facilities/eBIC.html <https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.diamond.ac.uk%2FScience%2FIntegrated-facilities%2FeBIC.html&data=01%7C01%7Cpez7%40pitt.edu%7Cb5bf8d1aa6c348f9127008d4d0742b70%7C9ef9f489e0a04eeb87cc3a526112fd0d%7C1&sdata=sYj49Dkc12YQQvPH1zoNhPnjOgOhAyniq5EUVLBk3E8%3D&reserved=0> ). You must be highly motivated, hold a PhD in biophysics/structural biology or equivalent, and have a demonstrated track record in conducting high quality original research. Knowledge in cryoEM/ET and protein biochemistry, and experience in structural biology (posts 1&3), or live-cell fluorescence microscopy (posts 2&3) are essential.
