The platform and associated research groups are located at the Centre for Integrative Biology (CBI) at IGBMC, Illkirch/Strasbourg, France, which comprises cutting-edge imaging and cryo-EM facilities:
The CBI provides a leading-edge scientific and technological environment in integrated structural biology to address the structure and function of biological systems, notably on gene expression, from the atomic, molecular to the tissue scales. The CBI http://www.igbmc.fr/grandesstructures/cbi/, hosts the French and European Infrastructures for Integrated Structural Biology, FRISBI http://frisbi.eu/ and Instruct-ERIC https://www.structuralbiology.eu/ which comprises super-resolution fluorescence microscopy (dSTORM/GSDIM Leica Microsystems SRGSD, equipped with adaptive optics for 3D SMLM image acquisition), advanced electron microscopy facilities equipped with cutting-edge instrumentation such as Titan Krios and Polara cryo electron microscopes, and cryo Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscope (cryo-FIB/SEM). The Titan Krios microscope is equipped with Cs corrector, Falcon 3 camera, GIF energy filter, K2 camera and phase plate. In addition, the EM facility has a suite of associated equipments for sample preparation and dedicated computing resources for image analysis, processing and 3D reconstruction by fluorescence microscopy, single particle cryo-EM and cryo electron tomography (cryo-ET). The CBI hosts the Imaging Centre of the IGBMC, which comprises numerous equipments such as confocal microscopes, macroscopes, videomicroscopes / time-lapse instruments, FRET, FLIM, etc., see http://www.igbmc.fr/technologies/ and http://ici.igbmc.fr/equipment/.
Applications should be sent via email to klaholz@igbmc.fr including CV, list of publications, names of 3 referees and motivation letter. The position remains open until filled.
