About this position

Adolfo B. Poma’s group at the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research, Polish Academy of Sciences is advertising postdoc and PhD positions in computational biophysics.

The project focuses on the molecular mechanisms governing the transition of intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) condensates into amyloid-like fibrils, a process relevant to the early stages of neurodegenerative diseases. The research combines advanced computational modeling with experimental microscopy data in a multiscale simulation framework.

Methods include Martini 3 coarse-grained simulations adapted for IDPs and an extended GōMartini 3 model to control stabilization of sequence-specific secondary structure. The work will examine conformational rearrangements of protein chains, nucleation of ordered β-strand-rich assemblies, and their organization inside biomolecular condensates, with microscopy data used for parametrization and validation.

The postdoc appointment is for 36 months and starts on 2027-01-01; the PhD position is for 42 months and starts on 2027-03-01. Deadlines are 2026-10-30 for the postdoc and 2026-12-31 for the PhD. The post mentions that full requirements are in the PDF advertisement.

Applicants should contact [email protected] and review the full job posting PDF for detailed eligibility criteria and application instructions.
