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...
