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...

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...
