The laboratory of Professor Neil Hunter FRS in the School of Biosciences seeks a Research Associate to work on a collaborative project funded by an ERC Synergy award.

The aims of the Sheffield part of the Synergy project relevant to this position are to: (1) purify a range of native, engineered and de novo designed proteins involved in photosynthesis; (2) characterise the structural and functional properties of native, engineered and de novo designed complexes using a variety of biophysical and spectroscopic methods.

(3) use cryo-electron microscopy to determine the high-resolution structures of these complexes, using the latest approaches at all stages, including making grids, data analysis and model building.

Applicants must have a PhD with a strong background in protein structure determination by cryo-electron microscopy, specifically with experience with large, multisubunit membrane protein complexes. Experience in gene manipulation, general protein engineering and purification of membrane and membrane-extrinsic proteins is also required.

The postholder will make collaborative visits to Ludwig Maximilian University, Munich and Centre Algatech, Trebon, Czech Republic, as part of the Synergy research programme.

We build teams of people from different heritages and lifestyles from across the world, whose talent and contributions complement each other to greatest effect. We believe diversity in all its forms delivers greater impact through research, teaching and student experience.
