A one-year fixed-term contract is available in the FDP group to investigate the behavior of proteins within and on the surface of biomolecular condensates
Mission : Your tasks will include :
1. Carrying out research work, from setting up the experiment to writing up the results :
At least two of the following :
– Innovating smFRET methods to measure protein dynamics on the surface of biomolecular condensates.
– Analysis of smFRET data to study conformation and dynamics of disordered proteins in condensates.
– Expression and purification and labeling of intrinsically disordered proteins.
– Develop electrophysiology measurements to measure voltage within biomolecular condensates.
2. Participate in the life of the laboratory :
– Take part in the life of the research group (logistics, reagent stocks, tidying up, etc.)
– Help supervising trainees
– Take part in the Institute’s scientific events
Required skills : The ideal candidate must have :
– Relevant experience : 1 to 4 years
– Expertise in single molecule methods is preferred.
– Expertise with custom optical microscopes is preferred.
– Expertise in data analysis and coding is highly preferred.
– Expertise in expression and purification and labeling of proteins is preferred.
– Knowledge of other biophysical methods for protein characterization.
Fluent english is required.
