Postdoctoral Appointee – Natural Photosynthetic System

4 months ago

Lemont, Illinois, United States Argonne Full time

The Chemical Sciences and Engineering (CSE) Division is seeking a Postdoctoral Appointee who, under the guidance of a supervisor, will conduct fundamental research on solar energy conversion in natural photosynthetic systems and design biohybrid complexes for solar-driven fuels production. Research includes protein bioinorganic and biochemistry techniques, the development of methods to augment native and modified photosynthetic protein frameworks with abiotic cofactors, and the characterization of structure-function relationships in hybrid assemblies using a range of spectroscopic techniques.

Participates in protein isolation and characterization. Develops bioinorganic methods for protein modification enabling structure-function analysis of native photosynthetic systems and the insertion of abiotic cofactors into photosynthetic protein frameworks. Characterizes the structure, electron transfer properties, and catalytic function of native protein-protein interactions and hybrid assemblies using a range of biophysical spectroscopic techniques. Analyzes data, prepares manuscripts for submission to peer-reviewed publications, and makes presentations at scientific meetings. Maintains comprehensive knowledge of pertinent literature. Develops new ideas, concepts, and/or research proposals.

Position Requirements

  • Considerable knowledge of and experimental expertise in one or more of the following areas: Photosystem I, thylakoid membranes, protein isolation, protein modification, protein function characterization, protein cofactor characterization, protein structure characterization
  • Good interpersonal, verbal, and written communication skills. Good skill in data processing, evaluation, and interpretation. Good skill in working in an interdisciplinary research team setting
  • Some knowledge of and experimental expertise in protein design and expression using recombinant DNA and microbial protein expression techniques, organic/inorganic chemistry, biophysics, TA and EPR spectroscopy
  • This level of knowledge is typically achieved through a formal education in bioinorganic chemistry, biochemistry, or biophysical chemistry or related disciplines at the Ph.D. degree level with 0 to 3 years of experience or equivalent in the scientific application of this knowledge and practical laboratory experience
  • Ability to model Argonne's Core Values: Impact, Safety, Respect, Integrity, and Teamwork
