We have two postdoctoral research positions opening at the SGC, Goethe
University Frankfurt.
Position 1 - Structural biologist (protein crystallography): The Department
of Biochemistry, Chemistry and Pharmacy of the Goethe University Frankfurt
am Main offers immediately a position of a Postdoctoral scientist (m /f/ d)
(E13 TV-G-U) limited for initially 2 years. The salary grade is based on the
job characteristics of the collective agreement applicable to Goethe
University (TV-G-U). We are looking for a highly motivated and qualified
biochemist with experience in protein purification and characterization as
well as expertise protein crystallography for the development of specific
inhibitors for novel E3 ligases ("Structure-based discovery of small
molecule inhibitors for novel E3 ligases"). We offer an exciting position
embedded in an interdisciplinary, highly stimulating and international
research environment at the life science campus Riedberg as well as
'Landesticket Hessen'.
You have a master degree (or equal) as well as a PhD in biology, chemistry
biochemistry, biotechnology or similar. You have profound knowledge in
molecular biology and biochemistry and experience in protein
crystallography. Practical experience in biophysical methods and experience
of working abroad is a plus. You are comfortable to work within an
interdisciplinary team of international scientists with different
personalities and cultures. Fluency in English is a prerequisite. You are
passionate about your work and have a proactive attitude.
Position 2 - Biochemist/Biophysicist (assay development): The Department of
Biochemistry, Chemistry and Pharmacy of the Goethe University Frankfurt am
Main offers immediately a position of a Postdoctoral scientist (m/f/d) (E13
TV-G-U) limited for initially 2 years. The salary grade is based on the job
characteristics of the collective agreement applicable to Goethe University
(TV-G-U). We are looking for a highly motivated and qualified biochemist
with experience in protein purification and characterization as well as
expertise in the development of biochemical assays for the development of
specific inhibitors for novel E3 ligases ("Discovery and characterisation of
small molecule inhibitors for novel E3 ligases"). We offer an exciting
position embedded in an interdisciplinary, highly stimulating and
international research environment at the life science campus Riedberg as
well as 'Landesticket Hessen'. You have a PhD in biology, chemistry
biochemistry, biotechnology or similar.
You have profound knowledge in molecular biology, biochemical and cellular
technologies and experience in assay development. Practical experience in
high-throughput technologies and liquid handling and experience of working
abroad is a plus. You are comfortable to work within an interdisciplinary
team of international scientists with different personalities and cultures.
Fluency in English is a prerequisite. You are passionate about your work and
have a proactive attitude.
We offer an exciting position embedded in an interdisciplinary research
environment. Both positions are embedded in the Structural Genomics
Consortium (SGC), a not-for-profit, public-private partnership encompassing
8 pharmaceutical companies that conducts pre-competitive research to
facilitate the discovery of new medicines. Based at several additional
international universities (Stockholm, Toronto, Chapel Hill, Campinas) the
SGC's work contributes to new hypotheses in understanding and treating human
disease, and the subsequent identification of new targets for drug
discovery. The SGC is committed to Open Science, sharing knowledge, data
and reagents, which has led to a collaborative network of more than 250
international partners. The project is part of the Target 2035 initiative,
an international science federation with the goal to develop small molecule
inhibitors for the human proteome. The first step is the IMI project
EUbOPEN, an Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) funded project, which aims
to generate specific chemical probes and assemble an open access
chemogenomic library of well annotated compounds covering roughly 1,000
different proteins and test them in biological assays.
Goethe University is striving to increase the proportion of female
researchers and encourages in particular women to apply for the position.
People with disabilities will be given priority over other applicants with
the same qualifications.
Interested candidates are encouraged to submit a cover letter stating career
interests, CV and contact addresses of at least two referees in a single PDF
until 15th June 2021 to the following e-mail address:
<mailto:susanne.mueller-kn...@bmls.de> Susanne.mueller-knap(at)bmls.de.
Please note that application documents will be destroyed and not send back
after the <https://dict.leo.org/englisch-deutsch/application> application
<https://dict.leo.org/englisch-deutsch/procedure> procedure (do not hand in
original documents) and travel costs cannot be refunded.
Best regards,
