PhD position 'The neurophysiological mechanisms of sensory hypersensitivity'

Dissect protein synthesis, protein folding and chaperone function with cutting-edge single-molecule approaches Are you curious about how cells produce functional proteins? Do you want to push the envelope of applying single-molecule techniques to complex macromolecular systems? Join our single-molecule lab to study co-translational folding and chaperone...

Your job:We are working at the interface of biochemistry, molecular biology and biophysics to follow the journey of nascent proteins toward their functional structures as they emerge from the ribosome. These mechanistic studies pave the way for targeted interventions against protein misfolding and perturbed protein homeostasis which are important for a...
