Pharmacological regulation of potassium channels

The Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry is one of the largest institutes of the Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Science and conducts basic research to advance knowledge and benefit society. Innovative projects and interdisciplinary cooperation characterize research within the Max Planck Society. The research group of Computational Biomolecular Dynamics (Prof. Dr. Bert de Groot) invites applications for a position as

PhD Student (f/m/d) for the project Pharmacological regulation of potassium channels (Code Number 18-21)

The successful candidate for either position has a keen interest and strong skills in computational molecular physics, structural biology, statistical mechanics, and scientific computing, and a strong interest in interdisciplinary research and collaboration with experimental groups.

PhD candidates hold (or expect to complete soon) a Masters or equivalent degree in any of these or a related field. PhD students will have the opportunity to participate in one of several available PhD programs, with four years funding, in collaboration with the University of Göttingen. Masters students aiming at a fast track PhD are also welcome.

Payment and benefits are based on the TVöD (collective wage agreement for the public sector) guidelines. The starting date is flexible.

The group language is English. For those who are interested, the institute offers free German courses.
