The OpportunityThe position is a 2-year position to support the development and application of cryo-EM to structure assisted drug discovery programs.As the successful candidate you will be responsible for optimisation of challenging GPCR biochemical samples for cryo-EM structure determination and/or biophysical and biochemical study of GPCR function.You will contribute to the determination of the structure of GPCRs to drive structure activity programs and for structure assist drug design.You will work within a broader team integrating membrane protein biochemistry, high-resolution cryo-EM structure determination, computational chemistry, molecular and analytical pharmacology and medicinal chemistry to understand and modulate GPCR function.Applicants will need to hold a PhD in an appropriate discipline and experience in membrane protein biochemistry, preferably with additional specific expertise in structural characterisation of membrane proteins by cryo-EM.Prior experience working with GPCRs would be desirable.You will be able to work both independently and seamlessly within a larger team environment, including application of highly developed technical skills, and rapid ability to learn new techniques.About Monash UniversityAt Monash, work feels different.There's a sense of belonging, from contributing to something groundbreaking – a place where great things happen.We value difference and diversity, and welcome and celebrate everyone's contributions, lived experience and expertise.That's why we champion an inclusive and respectful workplace culture where everyone is supported to succeed.Together with our commitment to academic freedom, you will have access to quality research facilities, infrastructure, world class teaching spaces, and international collaboration opportunities.Learn more about Monash.Be part of our story.Work with us to #ChangeIt.Monash supports flexible and hybrid working arrangements.We have a range of policies in place enabling staff to combine work and personal commitments.This includes supporting parents.To Apply
