Overview
Department of Plant Biology and Biotechnology wishes to appoint two post docs within Biochemistry and Cell Biophysics from March 1, 2010 or as soon as possible thereafter. Position 1 is for three years and position 2 is for two years.
Position 1: Analysis of membrane pumps by reconstitution into vesicles and nano discs
The post doc's duties will include research on the reconstitution of membrane pumps and their regulatory components into vesicles and nano discs. The post may include teaching to a limited extent. The 3-years postdoctoral position is available immediately.
The appointee should have qualifications within the following areas:
Biochemistry, biophysics and/or membrane cell biology.
Purification and analysis of membrane proteins.
Characterization of ATP-driven pumps such as P-type ATPases or ABC transporters.
In addition the appointee should be highly skilled in general molecular biological techniques including vector constructions, cloning, and PCR.
The successful candidate will be embedded in the new research program on Synthetic Biology at University of Copenhagen and Nano-Science Center, University of Copenhagen.
Position 2: Regulation and functional significance of membrane pumps involved in lipid transport and vesicle biogenesis
The post doc's duties will include research on P-type ATPases involved in lipid transport and vesicle formation. The project is aimed at undertaking an interdisciplinary effort to reveal the molecular function and regulation of these ATPases in yeast, mammalian cells and/or plant cells. The post may include teaching to a limited extent. The 2-years postdoctoral position is available immediately. For information in greater detail please see, for example, Poulsen et al. (2008) Plant Cell 20, 658-676 and Xu et al. (2008) J Cell Sci. 122:2866-2876.
The appointee should have qualifications within the following areas:
- Biochemistry, biophysics and/or cell biology.
- Cultivation of yeast, mammalian cells and/or plants.
In addition the appointee should be highly skilled in gene
ral molecular biological techniques including vector constructions, cloning, PCR and RNA interference.
The successful candidate will be embedded in the PUMPKIN research program at University of Copenhagen.
Qualification requirements
In connection with the appointment to the post special importance will be attached to the applicants having the professional and personal qualifications stated below:
Documented scientific qualifications such as a PhD. or equivalent in relation to the above subject areas.
Fluency in English. LIFE generally encourages employees who do not speak Danish to acquire a working knowledge of the language.
The post docs are also required to be enterprising and to possess good interpersonal skills.
The application, marked 621-311 and the position number should be sent by email to DPB_app@life.ku.dk where it must be received no later than February 26th, 2010 at 12.00 noon. Applications received after the closing date for applications will not be considered.
Enquiries
