Open postdoctoral researcher position (synthetic biology, antibody technology, antibody drug development) at the University of Helsinki

16.12.2016
We are looking for a second postdoctoral researcher to join our team. The projects involve – apart from enthusiasm and dedication – the setup of novel methods and requires knowledge and experience in the areas of molecular biology (cloning, mutagenesis), E. coli genetics, protein analysis (Western, IP, ELISA), protein purification (basics) and cell culture (transfection, cell line establishment). Knowledge in bioinformatics will be advantageous. Project goals include improvements of in-vitro antibody generation technologies and the generation of antibodies. Details will be discussed in the job interview.

The postdoctoral position is for two years and will start during spring 2017 with a probation period. The salary is based on the standard University of Helsinki salary system. Applications are considered as soon as they arrive and there is no fixed closing date since before we can hire, we have to relocate our lab in-house to have more lab space, which will happen sometime during beginning of 2017.
