Offer Description The European Synchrotron, the ESRF, is an international research centre based in Grenoble, France.
Through its innovative engineering, pioneering scientific vision and a strong commitment from its 700 staff members, the ESRF is recognised as one of the top research facilities worldwide. Its particle accelerator produces intense X-ray beams that are used by thousands of scientists each year for experiments in diverse fields such as biology, medicine, environmental sciences, cultural heritage, materials science, and physics.
Supported by 21 countries, the ESRF is an equal opportunity employer and encourages diversity.
The ID29 beamline is the first serial crystallography beamline for room temperature, time-resolved studies at a high energy 4th generation synchrotron. It delivers an unmatched flux density, enabling diffraction data collection from micro-sized samples in a few microseconds, allowing exploration of structural changes at room temperature. The beamline features state-of-the-art equipment, with fast goniometer for fixed target and liquid sample delivery, a high dynamic range integrating detector and laser probes. A dedicated sample preparation laboratory supports crystal delivery systems like injectors, fixed targets and microfluidic devices.
You will focus on developing novel environments for crystal handling and delivery systems for time-resolved experiments, as well as novel data collection methods, contributing to in-house and collaborative research projects. You will also participate in beamline operations, support external users as the local contact, and have the opportunity to develop your own research.
Minimum Requirements PhD in chemistry, physics, biophysics, biology or closely related science obtained less than 3 years ago
A strong background in X-ray crystallography and serial crystallography is desirable
A strong interest in new method development
Ability to interact with multi-disciplinary staff and facility users
English proficiency (working language at the ESRF)
Additional Information The salary will be calculated on the basis of relevant qualifications and professional experience.
