The Hahn-Meitner-Institut invites applications for a post-doctoral
position in the area of the structure of condensed matter.
The Hahn-Meitner-Institute is a German National Laboratory and a
member of the Hermann von Helmholtz Association of National Research
Centres and has about 850 employees. It hosts the Berlin Neutron
Scattering Centre (BENSC) (http://www.hmi.de/bensc/), a user facility
open to scientists from all over the world. To probe the structure
and dynamics of solids and liquids, BENSC provides scientists with
state-of-the-art neutron scattering equipment. Successful candidates
should be interested in experimental physics, collaborating with
guest groups, and instrument development
Postdoctoral position
physicist, biophysicist, biochemist or chemist
(The position is tenable for 3 years)
Research on the dynamical structure of biological macromolecules
This position is open to post-doctoral candidates who are looking for
an entry position in research. The responsibilities of the successful
candidate will include studies of the static and dynamical structure
of biological macromolecules membranes, proteins and enzymes) and its
influence on the biological function of these molecules. Research
methods employ neutron scattering techniques, especially wide-angle
and small-angle time-of-flight spectroscopy. The successful candidate
will also participate in experiments of user groups and support user
groups, who carry out research at the time-of-flight spectrometer
NEAT (http://www.hmi.de/bensc/instrumente/v2/v2.html ) in many
different areas of condensed matter research.
A broad knowledge and experience in the field of condensed matter,
especially in physics, biophysics, biochemistry or physical chemistry
as well as in spectroscopy or small angle scattering will be
required. Experience with computer aided modelling and the
programming of models will be advantageous.
