Postdoctoral Position in Structural Bioinformatics at Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris
The Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral candidate, with experience in structural bioinformatics and appropriate programming skills. The position is available for 18 months, starting between May and July 2013, in
a multidisciplinary institute (IMPMC, UMR7590 CNRS – Université Pierre et Marie Curie), embedded in the highly dense research campus of Jussieu, in the center of Paris.
The research activity of the group is centered on the development of methodologies for protein sequence analyses. These are used for predicting the structure, function and evolution of proteins and are especially applied to the understanding of the molecular basis of protein dysfunctions in diseases.
In this INCA-funded project, the group aims at developing original strategies for deciphering sequence-structure relationships and for identifying hidden relationships in protein sequences. These should be especially applied for large-scale investigations (at the level of genomes) and for the analysis of proteins involved in DNA damage response.
Applicants should send a CV, letter of motivation, and names of three references to Isabelle Callebaut (Isabelle.Callebaut@impmc.upmc.fr)
