Post-doctoral Fellow in Neuroproteomics

il y a 3 semaines


Luxembourg Luxembourg Institute of Health Temps plein

**Background**:Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disease that affects especially the older population. One hallmark of the disease is the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain. While other causes of Parkinson’s disease are still unclear, the loss of mitochondrial functions is a key feature of the disease. A key molecule for the correct function of mitochondria is Parkin. Defects in Parkin are linked to different subtypes of Parkinson‘s disease and other essential cellular protein quality control mechanisms. Recently, it was shown that the ubiquitination activity of Parkin regulates mitochondrial-ER contact sites (MERCS).

**Objectives**: The post-doctoral fellow will work on the characterization of the MERCS protein interactome in neurons using mass spectrometry-based proteomics.

**Training and research environment**: The proteomics of cellular signaling group is highly international, with members from France, Portugal, the USA, Brazil, Germany, Belgium, Lebanon, Pakistan and Poland. The group is part of the Department of Infection and Immunity, and its research focuses on regulation by post-translational modifications and changes in the protein-protein interactome using mass spectrometry-based techniques. The post-doctoral researcher will work on a DFG/FNR-funded project targeted at identifying new components of the MERCS. The project is a close collaboration with the laboratory of Anne Grünewald (University of Luxembourg) and Dajana Grossmann (University of Rostock, Germany).

**Key Skills, Experience and Qualifications**
- PhD in biochemistry, Biomedical Sciences or Chemistry.
- Mass spectrometry-based proteomics.
- Data analysis of large proteomics datasets.
- Experience in cell culture and molecular biology.
- Biochemical purification of proteins.
- Languages skills: fluent command of English; knowledge of another language of the European Union is an asset.

Researchers are supported by easy access to scientific expertise, well-equipped facilities, an active seminar program, and opportunities for conference attendance and collaboration with other research organizations.
