A post-doctoral position in Synthetic Biology and Protein Engineering is available in the Berger and Schaffitzel labs at the University of Bristol’s School of Biochemistry, the Max Planck Bristol Centre for Minimal Biology and the Bristol BioDesign Institute.
As part of the ADDovenom team, the post-holder will utilize state-of-the-art selection/evolution technology (Ribosome Display) to generate high-affinity binders (nanobodies and new scaffold proteins) that neutralise snake venom toxins. This project to develop new, safe and efficient antivenom to treat snakebites is an international collaboration with Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, University of Liege, University of Aix-Marseille, and iBET.
Experience with protein expression and purification is essential. Experience with biochemical and biophysical analysis of proteins and RNA isolation and preparation, and/or current molecular biology methods is a plus.
