Postdoctoral Positions in Amyloid Biophysics, Cell Biology, and CryoEM/ET at University of Leeds University of Leeds in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute with Dr Peter Rosenthal on cryomicroscopy of lipid-enveloped virus entry and assembly . The project sits at the intersection of structural biology , virology , cell biology , and biophysics , with a strong emphasis on cryo-EM , cryo-ET , and related imaging/computational methods. The research aims to directly image key steps in infection by lipid-enveloped viruses such as influenza and retroviruses . Topics include virus entry, receptor binding, mem...

PhD opportunity at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, United Kingdom on structural and cellular approaches to understand microtubule motors . This project sits at the intersection of cell biology , molecular biology , and structural biology , with a strong focus on microtubule motors such as dynein and kinesin . The research asks how motors are linked to cargos and coordinated to deliver organelles, RNAs, and proteins to the correct destination, especially...

University Hospital Münster is advertising a PhD Student position in Biophysics within the Institute of Molecular Physics and Biophysics and the Center for Soft Nanoscience. The project is embedded in the DFG-funded Collaborative Research Centre 1748, Principles of Reproduction , and is based in the research group of Prof. Dr. Christos Gatsogiannis . The research focuses on the in situ structural analysis of ion channels in the flagellum of human sperm using advanced cryo-EM methods. The adverti...

Coming soon at the Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology, The University of Leeds: two postdoctoral positions and one PhD position will soon be advertised. The research themes mentioned are outer membrane protein assembly mechanisms and cryoEM of amyloid. One postdoc and one PhD student will be linked to outer membrane protein assembly mechanisms, while one postdoc will focus on cryoEM of amyloid. The post is shared by Sheena Radford, Astbury Professor of Biophysics at The University o...
