Open Positions


We are currently looking for researchers to join our new laboratory at Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência:

Postdoctoral Researcher: Viral Host-Pathogen Interactions and Cell Biology

ROLE:

The postdoctoral researcher will study intracellular viral infection by employing prototype and cutting-edge optical tools, to both image and optically manipulate samples. The post-holder will be hosted by the Henriques lab at IGC, with an opportunity of short visits to the large network of laboratory collaborators.

REQUIREMENTS:

Applicants should have a BSc and PhD (taken in the last 3 years) in a relevant field and extensive research experience in cell biology, virology, host-pathogen interaction and imaging. Experience in HIV-1, super-resolution microscopy, structural biology, biophysics and computational modelling will be valued. Good communication skills, including a good level of spoken English to enable a good communication and work in an international setting, are necessary. High commitment and a collaborative attitude are needed for this job.
