Protein Mechanics and Evolution group : PICB Shanghai, and : Bioquant, Heidelberg University Max-Planck-Society - Chinese Academy of Sciences PhD and Postdoc positions available If you are interested in Computational Biology, more precisely molecular simulations of biomolecules, protein structure and mechanics, bioinformatics, and/or high performance computing check our outstanding research opportunities. Our research areas include: MOLECULES under FORCE BIOPOLYMER ELASTICITY, polymer physics PROTEIN ALLOSTERY, factors, mechanism, evolution CELLULAR protein assemblies with mechanical function PROTEIN NETWORKS and evolution ENZYMATIC function under force We work at the PICB (www.picb.ac.cn), a joint institute of the Max-Planck Society and Chinese Academy of Sciences, located in the heart of Shanghai, and the Bioquant, University of Heidelberg (www.bioquant.uni-heidelberg.de) State of the art molecular dynamics and hybrid quantum/molecular mechanical methods will be used and partially developed. The group-owned extensive parallel computing clusters and access to supercomputing facilities in Shanghai will be at your disposal. You will work in close collaboration with experimental groups, in Shanghai, Germany, and the US. Employment is possible both at the PICB in Shanghai and/or the MPI in Stuttgart. You will enjoy working on a challenging project in an interdisciplinary and international group in a stimulating and supportive environment. Excellent PhD candidates can benefit from the training opportunities at the PICB and at Heidelberg university (such as www.hbigs-heidelberg.de).
