This fully funded PhD position at the VIB–VUB Center for Structural Biology, co-affiliated with the VIB Center for AI & Computational Biology, offers an exciting opportunity to develop advanced AI-driven methods for protein design. The research focuses on explicitly accounting for protein–lipid and protein–membrane interactions, enabling the design of synthetic membrane proteins and nanopores with sophisticated functionalities such as selective transport, sensing, and signal transduction. The la...

The Zandawala Lab at KU Leuven is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to investigate the neuromodulation of feeding in Drosophila melanogaster and other arthropods. The lab focuses on the diverse roles of neuropeptides in controlling essential physiological processes such as feeding, metabolism, sleep, stress, reproduction, development, and locomotion. Utilizing a range of advanced techniques—including molecular and anatomical methods, CRISPR/Cas9, Drosophila genetics, behavioral analyses, optogen...
