Northeastern University’s Skinner Lab is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a two-year research appointment in Boston, Massachusetts. The project focuses on uncovering cellular metabolic regulation through advanced metabolomics and proteomics approaches. The postdoctoral researcher will initiate, execute and complete experiments; interpret results with the supervisor; prepare research papers, presentations and grant proposals; help maintain the laboratory; and train students. The work may inv...

Postdoctoral position in AI-assisted protein design at CNRS and Institut Pasteur. The post is hosted in the Biologie Structurale Computationnelle unit, led by Dr. Max Bonomi , within CNRS UMR3528 and the Department of Structural Biology and Chemistry at the Institut Pasteur in Paris. The researcher will work on cutting-edge computational approaches for protein design , using artificial intelligence to create proteins with targeted structures, properties, and functions. The role is centered on de...

Heidelberg Biosciences International Graduate School (HBIGS) at Heidelberg University is a doctoral programme in the biosciences, offering PhD training in a highly interdisciplinary research environment in Heidelberg. The programme brings together research areas in which Heidelberg is especially strong, including developmental biology, infectious diseases, molecular and cellular biology, molecular biotechnology and biophysics, molecular plant sciences, neurosciences, structural biology, biochemi...

Graduate School of Quantitative and Molecular Biosciences Munich (QMB) is a structured doctoral programme based at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München and run in cooperation with Technical University Munich, Helmholtz Center Munich, and the Max Planck Institute for Biochemistry Munich. The programme focuses on quantitative approaches to molecular biosciences, aiming to move beyond the study of single genes and proteins toward the analysis of large molecular machines, cellular pathways, and bi...

The University of Helsinki is recruiting a doctoral researcher for the project Inhibiting Protein Synthesis – Old, New, Borrowed, Blue at the Viikki Campus in Helsinki, Finland. The project is based in the Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences, Department of Molecular and Integrative Bioscience, and is led by Principal Investigator Sarah O’Keefe with co-supervision from Brendan Battersby. The research investigates how proteins are made and how protein-synthesis machinery can be inhibi...

Harry Low’s Lab at Imperial College London is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to investigate the structure and mechanism of bacterial secretion systems. The project will use cryo-electron microscopy ( cryo-EM ) and structural biology approaches to understand how these systems function at the molecular level. The work sits at the intersection of bacterial pathogenesis, membrane remodelling and antibiotic discovery. By characterising secretion machinery and its mechanisms, the project aims to...

The University of Arizona’s Department of Basic Medical Sciences is seeking a postdoctoral research associate for Dr. Miao Zhang’s laboratory in Phoenix. The laboratory studies the structure and function of membrane proteins, with particular emphasis on ion channels and transporters. The research program uses cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) to investigate membrane-protein architecture and mechanisms, supporting longer-term applications in AI-driven drug discovery. The role also encompasses mu...

The Matos laboratory at the Max Perutz Labs, University of Vienna , is seeking a Senior Scientist for mechanistic research into DNA repair, homologous recombination, meiotic crossover formation and chromosome biology. The successful researcher will take a leading role in projects investigating how recombination intermediates are formed and processed, how meiotic crossovers are generated, and how chromosome architecture and recombination are coordinated during gametogenesis. The laboratory works ...

Vicente Pelechano’s Research Group at Karolinska Institutet is offering a postdoctoral scholarship in computational and structural RNA biology. The project sits at the intersection of RNA biology, computational biology, and genome-wide method development, with a strong emphasis on how RNA sequence and structure shape gene regulation and cellular phenotypes. The successful candidate will work on understanding how variation in untranslated regions, especially alternative 3′ UTR isoforms and natura...
