Work profile:
The successful applicant will perform experimental research to understand how 
membrane proteins belonging to the TRP-channel family are regulated in normal 
and pathophysiology using single particle cryo-EM. 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). Elife 10:e73124
• Li et al (2021) Nature Communications 12(1):3973
• Wang et al (2021) Nature Communications 12(1):2956

Preliminary start date:
As soon as possible

Supervisor/contact person:
Peter Zygmunt, +46 (0)46-222 69 06, peter.zygm...@med.lu.se
Pontus Gourdon, +46 (0)739-95 98 56, pontus.gour...@med.lu.se

(Preferred) qualifications:
• To candidate must hold a PhD degree within a relevant field, and the degree 
cannot be older than three years.
• Experience of cloning, production and purification of membrane proteins.
• Experience of single particle cryo-EM on membrane proteins including the 
preparation and freezing of protein samples.
• Experience of screening samples using “state-of-the-art” electron microscopes 
such as Talos, Glacios and Krios.
• Experience of publication of cryo-EM structure studies.
• Experience of interdisciplinary collaborations.
• Excellent knowledge of written and spoken English.

Written application, including reference number, is to be sent via e-mail to 
the supervisors and must include the following:
• CV
• Personal letter stating the reasons why the study suits the applicant 
(maximum one page)
• List of publications
• References (2)
• Indicate the reference number (V2022/1491) in the email and in the attached 
application
