Dear Everyone,

I would appreciate if you could forward/post the below job advertisement:

Professors Lukasz and Mariusz Jaremko at King Abdullah University of
Science and Technology (KAUST) are looking for prospective graduate
students and Post-docs to perform solution-state and solid-state Bio-NMR
research. The projects will involve the study of intrinsically disordered
proteins (IDP) and enzymes. This is an exciting new initiative at KAUST.
Please see below 4 job advertisements. Interested parties need to contact
them directly using the provided email addresses. Also, please see the
department website: https://bese.kaust.edu.sa/research/Pages/Employment.aspx.

These research will be using bioNMR-dedicated 950 and 700 MHz high
resolution NMR spectrometers equipped with TXO and TCI cryoprobes and
Bruker multi-receiver consoles; and 900WB and 600WB MHz solid-state NMR
spectrometers equipped with multiple CPMAS probes.

Best regards,
Chris Canlas

techniques.
Description:
The research of the group is focused on atomic-level insight into essential
and topical
questions of biochemistry and molecular medicine. The candidate for a Ph.D.
student
position should be able to carry out interdisciplinary projects to study
the structural and
dynamic properties of proteins and their complexes. We are seeking for
highly motivated
persons with an interest and experience in the protein biochemistry and
biophysical
methods used for characterization of medically important proteins and
protein-protein/ligand
interactions.
Depending on the interests a successful candidate will have an opportunity
to expand
expertise in various biophysical methods relevant to the cutting-edge
Integrated Structural
Biology, with a particular emphasis on the solution, solid-state NMR
spectroscopy and X-ray
crystallography, molecular dynamics simulations.
Requirements (please see the link at Application requirements):
Applicants must be graduates of biochemistry, molecular biology or a related
discipline. The positions require the knowledge and experience in the
bacterial expression
systems (E.coli) and purification of recombinant proteins, routine
biophysical methods, and
molecular biology techniques. Additional knowledge of the structural
biology would be a plus
for the applying candidate. Furthermore, excellent oral and written
communication skills in
English, effective judgment and problem solving with little or no
supervision, a high
motivation and commitment to the academic biochemical and biomedical
research.
Appointment and Benefits:
Highly competitive salary (no tax to be paid). Benefits comprise, among
others (links
below), the free fully furnished housing, free high standard medical and
dental insurance.
How to apply:
Please send an e-mail to jaremko.nmr_at_gmail.com containing a cover letter
and CV,
together with 3 reference letters, combined into one PDF file. Please
specify in your letter
which research areas mentioned in this offer you find to fit the best to
your interests and
personality.
The positions are available in the beginning of 2018.

peptide/proteinbased
bio-inspired materials (hydro-gels, aggregates), inhibitors of protein
interactions,
aggregation, and liquid-liquid protein phase separation.
