April 10, 2008

A PhD student position in the computational biomolecular dynamics group at the Max Planck Institute for biophysical Chemistry in Goettingen, Germany is available to start immediately.

The project is part of the EU-wide ‘EDICT’ network that brings together the top european membrane protein structural biologists. The project will address the following goals using molecular dynamics simulations and related computational techniques:

  •  the development of accurate and efficient simulation techniques for the affinity prediction of putative blockers to membrane channels;
  •  the computational design of small molecule inhibitors of aquaporins and aquaglyceroporins;

The computational work will be carried out in close collaboration with experimental groups that carry out organic synthesis of candidate compounds, that test the activity of designed compounds in in vitro assays, and optionally structurally characterize channel-inhibitor complexes.

The successful candidate should have a degree in physics or chemistry, should have basic knowledge of structural biology and should have a strong interest in computational biophysics. Payment will be according to the German TVöD standard.
