Job Description

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD Research Fellow to join our research team at the Department of Chemistry. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work on a cutting-edge project investigating the catalytic properties of protein aggregates and their relation to neurodegenerative diseases.

Research Project
  • Develop expression systems for the production of proteins (e.g. Aβ, α-synuclein)
  • Investigate the catalytic properties of amyloids and their relation to the aggregation state
  • Design and synthesize peptide variants inspired by nature or ideal design of catalytic sites
  • Study the relationship between other proteins (e.g. Tau, apoE, CASS4, NME8) using similar strategies

The project aims to elucidate new therapeutic approaches by focusing on the catalytic aspect of protein aggregates.

Qualifications
  • Master's degree in molecular biology or a corresponding area with experience in protein expression and purification
  • Foreign completed degree corresponding to a minimum of four years in the Norwegian educational system
  • For a 4-year position, the candidate must master a Scandinavian language sufficiently well to teach in that language

Desirable qualifications include an interest in chemistry and chemical synthesis, as well as insight into structural characterization techniques.
