You should be creative, with good interpersonal and collaborative skills, power of initiative, and a high degree of independence. In particular, it is preferred if you master cloning, production, purification and analysis of membrane proteins as well as sample preparation, data collection, processing and analysis for determination of cryo-EM structures. The research will be supervised by Prof. Peter Zygmunt in collaboration with Assoc. Prof. Pontus Gourdon. Selected publications from 2022 & 2021 from the two groups: • Zhang et al (2022) Nature Communications 13(1):7483 • Moparthi et al (2022) Nature Communications 13(1):6113 • Salustros et al (2022) Nature Communications 13(1):5121 • Li et al (2022) Nature Communications 13(1):4339 • Wiuf et al (2022) Science Advances 8, eabn4331 • Grønberg et al (2021).
