Just Landed

Postdoctoral Fellow in Time-Resolved and Room-Temperature Crystallography The Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerland is hiring a postdoctoral researcher in structural biology and X-ray crystallography. The project aims to make time-resolved and room-temperature crystallography routine, moving beyond static protein structures measured at cryogenic temperatures. The postdoctoral fellow will conduct mixing and microsecond pump–probe experiments at the new PXI-VESPA endstation at the SLS 2.0 f...

Switzerland

Open postdoctoral position in the group of Pascal Bertsch at the University of Fribourg, within the ERC Starting Grant project GI-CORONA. The project investigates how dietary lipids and lipid-based drug delivery systems interact with the complex biochemical environment of the gastrointestinal tract, and how these interactions affect lipid digestion and drug delivery. A central goal is to understand the formation and biological function of the gastrointestinal biocorona on liquid lipid interfaces...

Quick Questions

Should I email professors before submitting my PhD application?
Yes. A well-targeted email can significantly improve your chances in many research-based programs.
What should I include in my first email to a professor?
A brief introduction, research interests aligned with the professor’s work, CV, and (if available) publication links.
How long should I wait before following up with a professor?
Typically 7–14 days. One polite follow-up is considered acceptable.
Is it better to send the same email to many professors?
No. Personalized emails that clearly match the professor’s research receive far better response rates.
Do I need a full research proposal when contacting professors?
Usually not initially — a short research summary is sufficient unless the professor specifically requests a full proposal.
