Postdoctoral Researcher in Cryo-EM Analyses of Ubiquitin Ligase Complexes

The Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences invites applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher position in the research group Ubiquitin Signaling Specificity (Dr. Sonja Lorenz). The position focuses on revealing structural mechanisms of specificity, regulation, and substrate recognition by ubiquitin ligases using cryo-EM as a principal structural tool, complemented by X-ray crystallography, biophysical, and biochemical analyses. Candidates should hold or soon expect a PhD in a relevant life sciences field and have a strong track record in single-particle cryo-EM (or cryo-ET) and protein biochemistry. The position is initially limited to two years with potential for extension.
