Postdoctoral fellowship in cell biology using correlative cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-CLEM).

A postdoctoral fellowship position, funded by the Kempe Foundations, is available for a highly motivated cell biologist, with the dedication to work with correlative light and cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-CLEM; Group Linda Sandblad).

Project description:
This project is focused on resolving the architecture of cytoskeleton and protein complexes in associated with membranes in cells. The aim is to make use of cryo-CLEM, and to punch the future development of florescence imaging under cryo conditions, cryo lamella preparation from cell culture and cryo electron tomography.

PhD and master project opportunities in Molecular Infection Biology

Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Molecular Infection Biology

Project: The molecular basis of a novel host cellular defense pathway against infection (Barbara Sixt lab)

The postdoc project involves the implementation of a CRISPR/Cas9 screening approach to dissect the molecular composition of a recently identified novel pathway of programmed cell death induced during infection with the obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen Chlamydia trachomatis.

The full-time scholarship is for 1+1 years (with possibility for further prolongation depending on satisfactory performance).  Starting date: as soon as a suitable candidate can be found.
