Open EM positions at MPI of Biochemistry, Munich


Max-Planck Institute of Biochemistry, Munich, Germany
Application deadline: 30 Jun 2023


Position is available for electron microscopists at different levels of experience who are interested to join them at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry in Munich, Germany.

The institute has a large, vibrant community that develop and use cryo-electron microscopy, tomography, and FIB-SEM sample preparation methods, and that works closely with industrial partners. They operate a state-of-the-art fleet of electron microscopes including four TFS Titan Krios, a TFS Arctis plasma-FIB and multiple smaller TEMs and FIB-SEMs.

They would like to hear from you if you are a cryo-EM expert with substantial experience and technical or scientific background, or if you are scientist, technician or engineer at an early career stage with a passion for TEM or FIB-SEM. Tasks, dependent on experience, can include performing research in TEM or FIB-SEM technology, contributing to methods development projects, operating, maintaining and upgrading microscopes, training and supporting users, and taking responsibility for the microscopes and associated equipment.

Please reach out to one of us by email if you are interested.
