Postdoc positions in the Schanda Group in biomolecular NMR

  • Full Time (40h/w)
  • Klosterneuburg (Vienna), Austria
  • € 69’188* gross/year

We welcome applications for joining our dynamic international team and working on exciting questions of protein dynamics and function, using and developing NMR in combination with other techniques.

Several projects are currently available, as briefly described below. The positions have some flexibility, and we welcome candidates interested in a range of techniques, from developing new NMR approaches to study protein dynamics to biological questions where NMR and other techniques are used as tools to decipher biological mechanisms, e.g.:

Use solution-and solid-state NMR to address chaperone function and protein translocation

Enzyme dynamics and allostery

Develop and apply MAS NMR to study how dynamics underlies protein function
