The Institute of Biotechnology is an independent research organisation within the University of Helsinki. The Research program for Structural Biology and Biophysics includes an X-ray Crystallography Unit equipped with an automated protein crystallisation facility and inhouse X-ray generator, in addition to cell culture and protein purification facilities. The unit hosts two active research groups. The Heikinheimo group has an ongoing project studying aspects of lysosomal protein targeting where the current position will be filled.

Institute of Biotechnology, macromolecular crystallography unit invites applications for

Postdoctoral Researcher

For 12 months with effect from 1.4.2008 to 31.3.2009 (project).

The postdoctoral researcher will join a multidisciplinary project studying the biology of lysosomal proteins through structural and cell biological methods. The work will involve molecular biology, cell culturing and protein isolation in addition to crystallisation and structure determination of lysosomal proteins. The final focus of the work may be adjusted based on the interest and expertise of the individual. The person will also be involved in the everyday advising for the students working in the project.

You should have a PhD degree and suitable background in protein crystallography or in protein sorting and cell glycobiology or life cycle and biology of lysosomes. We assume knowledge of basic methods in protein chemistry and molecular biology. Experience on independent research projects is a plus.

The salary for a post doctoral researcher is based on level 5 of the demands level chart for teaching and research personnel. With the salary component based on personal work performance the overall salary range is 2 466-3 600 euro per month.

The application should include a complete cv including your education and degrees obtained, prior work experience and contact information for at least one referee.

The applications should be sent to: Institute of Biotechnology, Pirkko Heikinheimo, PO Box 65 (Viikinkaari 1), FIN-00014 UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI, Finland, no later than on Monday 10.3.2007, at 3.45 PM o’clock.
