Milano, Lombardia, Italia Human Technopole Foundation A tempo pieno

APPLICATION CLOSING DATE: June18th, 2024

Human Technopole (HT) is an interdisciplinary life science research institute, created and supported by the Italian Government, with the aim of developing innovative strategies to improve human health. HT is composed of five Centers: Neurogenomics, Computational Biology, Structural Biology, Genomics, and Health Data Science. The Centers work together to enable interdisciplinary research and to create an open, collaborative environment that will help promote life science research both nationally and internationally.

The Human Technopole Foundation is looking for aPostdocto work in the Structural Biology Research Centre in the laboratory of Prof. Alessandro Vannini.

The Vannini Group combines cryo-electron microscopy (both SPA and cryo-ET), mass spectrometry, single molecule analisys and various biophysical techniques to elucidate the role of multi-subunit macromolecular machineries involved in genome function and organization. In particular, we are interested in understanding at the molecular level how the SMC complexes (Condenisn I and II) and general transcription factors (TFIIIC), together with specific auxiliary factors and chromatin remodellers, control the architecture of the human genome throughout the cell cycle.

The HT Centre of Structural Biology has top-notch managed facilities for Cryo-EM (Titan Krios, 1 Glacios, 1 Aquilos2, 1 Spectra, 1 Talos 120), cryo-CLEM, Light imaging, XL- and native mass -pectrometry and support units for Biophysics (mass photometry, SEC-MALLS, ITC, x-ray crystallography etc), Biomass production (E,coli, yeast, insect cells, suspension mammalian cells with fermenters up to 150 litres) and a dedicated managed platform for single molecule experiments on optical tweezers (Lumicks C-trap and M-trap).

We are looking for a highly motivated and creative individual with a strong interest in structural and functional characterization of large multi-subunit complexes, using integrative approaches. Previous expertise in structural biology or, in alternative, RNA biochemistry is essential. We encourage international candidates to apply and will support applications to external Postdoctoral fellowship schemes (EMBO, Marie Curie, HPSF, etc.), for which we have an outstanding record of success



Key tasks and responsibilities:

  • Investigating the role of transcription factors, architectural complexes and chromatin remodellers into high order chromatin structure and function, integrating structural biology data (cryo-EM, CLEM, XL-MS) with light imaging and functional in vivo data.
  • Present scientific work at seminars within the Human Technopole and at international meetings.
  • Generate reliable data for publication and record all data and results in specified forms (paper and electronic).
  • Contribute to the writing of project related scientific papers.
  • Assist in the training of PhD students and contribute to the smooth running of the lab.
