LABORATORY OF PROTEIN CHEMISTRY, UNIVERSITY OF STRASBOURG, FRANCE. SUPERVISOR: DR. VLADIMIR TORBEEV
ABOUT US
We are a junior research team at the Institute for Supramolecular Science and
Engineering (ISIS) a leading interdisciplinary research center at the University of
Strasbourg. Our goal is to contribute to solving challenging biological problems
using methods of chemistry and biophysics.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Highly motivated researchers with strong interest in peptide / protein chemistry.
Possible projects include investigation of structure-function studies of intrinsically
disordered proteins, protein aggregation into amyloids and the creation of de novo
enzymes.
REQUIREMENTS
Experience in chemical synthesis with prior experience in peptide/protein
chemistry considered strong advantage
Knowledge of biophysical methods (protein NMR in particular)
PhD Candidates must have a Master or an equivalent degree
Excellent command of the English language in writing and presentation
HOW TO APPLY
Qualified applicants should submit an application by email, including a letter
outlining research interests, the CV, and the contact information of three referees
to torbeev@unistra.fr
