📌 Permanent position on the cryo-electron microscopy facility at Université Paris-Saclay (FRANCE)

The successful applicant will operate the Titan Krios at SOLEIL for single particle analysis and electron tomography (cryoET). He/She will plan and execute experiments for in-house and external users, manage and analyse the data, and assist users in performing these steps as required. He/She will also take part in the development of new methods in these rapidly-expanding fields, and interact with the engineering facilities at SOLEIL and at I2BC. Finally, the applicant will be an active contributor to develop correlative microscopy, including light microscopy and X-ray imaging such as soft X-ray tomography, taking advantage of the opportunities afforded by the synchrotron environment. The applicant should have a PhD in physical or biological sciences and experiences in cryoEM, with a demonstrated proficiency in the use of electron microscopes. Experience at a cryoEM facility and in interfacing with users is an important plus; expertise in cryo-ET and/or cryo-CLEM is highly desirable.

📌 postdoc position available in Peijun Zhang's group at eBIC, UK

Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is currently incurable and is the second leading cause of cancer death in American men. Androgen-independent activation of the androgen receptor (AR) remains the major driving force leading to CRPC. Structural and functional analysis of a novel class of AR antagonists capable of inducing AR degradation in the nucleus may lead to new therapeutics for CRPC.
You should have a PhD degree in structural biology or equivalent and have a demonstrated record of accomplishment in conducting high quality original research. Knowledge and research experience in structural biology, including protein biochemistry and single particle cryoEM, are essential.

Applicants are required to outline their suitability for this role via the online application process and should include a CV, summary of their accomplishment and research interests, and publication list.
The initial closing date for applications is 12th November 2023, however applications will be reviewed and interviewed on an ongoing basis until this vacancy is filled.
