Experiencia
Applicants must have a master's degree in Biochemistry, Biotechnology or Biophysics. Background in
colloidal chemistry, protein chemistry and analytical characterization techniques will be valued. Applicants
should have a good academic record, good communication skills, a strong passion and commitment to
science, and work well within a group. Knowledge of written and spoken English is also needed.
Neutron scattering is a technique that seeks to understand the properties of matter at a structural and
dynamic level. Neutron scattering techniques are only available in large facilities, as they can only be
produced in nuclear reactors or spallation sources. The European Spallation Source (ESS) is currently
being built in Lund, Sweden, and the Basque country has contributed significantly by building key
components. At the end of the construction phase, it is very important that there are trained users capable of
using the full potential of the ESS to advance in science and technology in the Basque country. Are you
ready to help expand neutron scattering in the Basque country?

Otros

The open PhD position will focus on studying HDL remodeling by SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S) protein. Thisincludes unravelling HDL structure and S structure upon interaction with each other, as a function of Sprotein variant and the blood serum profile for the donor of HDL. This is relevant for understanding whysome individuals get sicker than others since there is an inverse correlation between the severity ofCovid19 infection and HDL levels, as well as cholesterol content.Applications should send all the documentation as soon as possible. The position will be filled as soon as asuitable candidate is found.

Applications must include:

1. a cover letter highlighting their interest in the position and the main research achievements.

2. curriculum vitae clearly stating the PhD degree and master final qualifications.

3. Copies of bachelor and master diploma

4. A list of publications and participation at international conferences

5. the name and contact address (e-mail) of at least one academic referee.
