The University of Freiburg (Germany), has a PhD position in the Hunte lab to study fundamental processes of biological energy conversion and their implications in health and disease. Membrane protein complexes will be studied with a combination of molecular biological, biochemical and biophysical methods with emphasis on X-ray crystallography.
The project focuses on the role of lipids for proton-translocating respiratory complexes.
The position is integrated in the Research Training Group (RTG) 2202 “Transport across and into membranes”, a three ‐ year structured PhD program at the University of Freiburg. The Hunte research group is based at the Institute for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and is a member of the BIOSS Centre for Biological Signalling Studies (Cluster of Excellence).
The University is offering a dedicated research environment with state-of-the art facilities for membrane protein research at the molecular level. We are seeking highly motivated and qualified individuals with a keen interest in molecular biomedical research.
Candidates should hold a university degree (Master or equivalent) in biochemistry, chemistry, biology or a related topic.
Positions are available from August 2016 until filled.
