Research Opportunity

The Kummer group at the University of Copenhagen is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team. Our research focuses on understanding how human herpes viruses replicate their genome during lytic infection and how this process can be inhibited.

The successful candidate will have expertise in biochemical, biophysical, and structural characterization of nucleic acid binding proteins. They will develop project-specific experimental strategies, techniques, and procedures, and contribute to writing and dissemination of research results.

We are looking for an enthusiastic scientist with a strong background in protein biochemistry, mammalian cell culture techniques, and cryo-electron microscopy sample preparation, data acquisition, and analysis. The candidate should have a PhD in biology, biochemistry, or a related field, and publications in high-quality journals and presentations at international conferences.

The position offers the opportunity to work on an interesting and challenging project that will profit from your enthusiasm, creativity, and willingness to implement new methodology. As a postdoctoral candidate, you will have the opportunity to manage a research project and the associated resources.
