Fellow opportunities

Our group is participating in the 2022 EIPOD-LinC Fellowship Programme call for applications.

Collaborations that are relevant to the call are listed below. Please contact Matthias Wilmanns to discuss your project ideas.

Collaborations

  • Olivier Neyrolles, IPBS Toulouse, France: infection biology, toxin/antitoxin systems
  • Eirikur Steingrimmson, University of Iceland, Iceland: molecular building blocks, regulation and nuclear import of basic-HLH-Zipper transcription factors

Joining the group as a technology developer and engineer

Integrated structure and metabolomics platform for microbial targets

Supported by the ARISE program, deadline September 30, 2022

We aim to establish a multidisciplinary metabolomics/structure service platform for determination of metabolic mechanisms of specific drugs or prodrugs by different microorganisms, in collaboration with Michael Zimmermann, Structural & Computational Biology Unit, EMBL Heidelberg. The platform will include establishment of a pipeline for high resolution structures of selected protein-drug complexes in microorganisms, and in-vitro analysis of the enzymatic processing of specific drugs by microorganisms.

In case of further interest please contact:

Matthias Wilmanns, EMBL Hamburg
