PhD position (m/f/d) in Experimental Molecular Biophysics of protein folding and misfolding in neurodegenerative diseases at the Freie Universität Berlin (65% TV-L E13, 36 month)
We are again looking for a motivated student who is interested in exploring biomedically relevant, physico-chemical concepts of protein/peptide (mis)folding trajectories at lipid membranes. This will be studied using surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) and AFM-based nanoscale Infrared spectroscopies at bilayer lipid membranes. Required: completed university studies (master) in (bio/physical) chemistry, biophysics, physics or related natural sciences. If you have experience with vibrational spectroscopy or atomic force microscopy and furthermore enjoy working and preparing proteins/peptides or membrane systems (or look forward to learning these skills), you are a good fit. Apply electronically (one PDF; motivation letter, CV, certificates, one letter of recommendation) by e-mail to Dr. Jacek Kozuch (jacek.kozuch@fu-berlin.de) until 09.05.2022.
