Beamline Scientist Macromolecular Crystallography at PETRA III (DESY) (application deadline: 6th May 2008)

Dear CCP4-Readers,

below an official announcement for the position of a beamline scientist at PETRA III (DESY)


Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron A Research Centre of the Helmholtz Association

DESY is one of the world's leading accelerator centres for investigating the structure of matter. DESY develops, builds and operates large accelerator facilities for photon science and particle physics. DESY looks back on a long tradition in synchrotron radiation experiments in a wide range of applications and is currently developing to one of the leading centres in this field worldwide. At present about 40 beamlines are operated at the storage ring DORIS III and the VUV Free-Electron Laser FLASH. Our new project is the conversion of the PETRA storage ring into one of the most brilliant hard X-ray sources PETRA III (http://petra3.desy.de).

For the PETRA III project we are seeking a

Beamline scientist (m/f).

The position:

- Head the design, installation and operation of an undulator beamline dedicated to protein crystallography and biological imaging; operated and build jointly by the Max-Planck-Society and the Helmholtz-Society.

- Work in a team oriented environment and establish and cultivate close contacts to the user community.

- Take on a leading role in the management of the beamline group and pursue you own line of research.

Requirements: - Ph.D. in physics, chemistry or a comparable qualification - Experience at a 3rd generation synchrotron radiation source - Long standing experience in design, operation and development of synchrotron radiation instrumentation is a prerequisite - A convincing research record is expected


For further information you may also contact Dr. Franz (+49 40/8998-4534, hermann.franz@desy.de) or Prof. Dr. Edgar Weckert (+49 40/8998-4509).


Salary and benefits are commensurate with those of public service organizations in Germany. DESY operates flexible work schemes. Handicapped persons will be given preference to other equally qualified applicants. DESY is an equal opportunity, affirmative action employer and encourages applications from women. There is an English-speaking Kindergarten on the DESY site.
