Exciting post-doctoral position in synthetic biology and protein engineering available in the Berger and Schaffitzel labs at the Bristol School of Biochemistry, the BioDesign Institute and the Max Planck-Bristol Centre for Minimal Biology. As part of the ADDovenom team (https://addovenom.com), you will utilize state-of-the-art selection/evolution technology (Ribosome Display) to generate high-affinity binders (nanobodies and new scaffold proteins) that neutralise snake venom toxins. This project is an international collaboration with Nicholas Casewell at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, Loic Quinton at University of Liege, Renaud Vincentelli at University of Aix-Marseille, Paula Alves and Antonio Roldao at iBET, Lisbon to develop new, safe and efficient antivenom to treat snakebites.

Experience with display techniques, antibody libraries, protein expression and purification, biochemical and biophysical analysis is a definite plus.

Application deadline is 9th January 2023.
