Post Doctoral Position in Biology

Post-Doctoral Fellow for the Structural Biology Group
You will work on the study of proteins sensitive to X-ray damage or Reactive Oxygen Species using X-ray crystallography and complementary spectroscopic techniques. Electronic or vibrational spectroscopic data obtained directly on protein crystals (from UV-visible light, fluorescence or Raman spectroscopies) have become instrumental in corroborating structural data. Complementary spectroscopic techniques during crystallographic data collection can also serve as a tool to monitor X-ray induced radical formation and damage to metal and sulphur centres. The use of specific sensitizers and optical markers will help to define rigorously the experimental procedures.

Two Post-Doctoral Positions neurobiology
A new group (Group leader: Ayumu Tashiro) that will be formed in the Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience and the Centre for the Biology1 of Memory at Norwegian University of Science and Technology, located in Trondheim, Norway, is looking for 2 postdoctoral fellows to study the function of hippocampus circuitry in learning and memory, using a multi-disciplinary approach combining virus-mediated genetic manipulation, optical stimulation and multi-unit recording techniques in behaving rodents.
