Position in Cryo-EM scientific computing
The Biofisika Institute in Bilbao (Basque Country in Spain) invites applications for a cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) scientific computing position. Candidates must hold a PhD degree in a relevant discipline with a focus on structural biology. The Biofisika Institute is a joint research centre of the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). The centre focuses on fundamental and translational biophysics research and offers a highly collaborative culture. As part of the newly formed Basque Resource for Electron Microscopy (BREM), in 2021 the Instituto Biofisika will host a ThermoFisher´s Titan Krios G4, equipped with a phase plate and Gatan´s BioContinuum Imaging Filter and K3 direct electron detector.
- Qualifications of the successful candidate include
- Proficiency in single particle cryo-EM image processing and 3D reconstruction.
- Proficiency in cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) data processing.
- Fluency in at least two computing languages (C++, Matlab, CUDA, OpenCL, Python).
- Ability and willingness to run systems administration tasks in high-performance computing environments.
- Strong communication and organizational skills will also be important.
- Responsibilities of the successful candidate include
- Process single particle cryo-EM data including handling raw data, interpretation, 3D reconstruction and map refinement, and model building.
- Maintenance and development of the Dynamo package for cryo-ET, with emphasis on supporting both intramural research groups and users worldwide.
- Support high-performance computing infrastructure including management of large data storage and processing clusters.
The funding of the position is initially secured for up to two years; mid-term vision aims at offering the candidate a permanent contract. To apply, please use this link to send a curriculum vitae, three relevant publications, and the contact information for three references to Daniel Castano Diez and Iban Ubarretxena Belandia with the following subject Job Application: CryoEM scientific computing
