An Engineer/Staff scientist position is open in the Structural Image Analysis Unit at Institut Pasteur, Paris (PI Niels Volkmann) for the development and application of algorithms for multiscale correlative imaging, volume processing, three-dimensional reconstruction, and data mining. The primary target data will be provided by cryogenic electron microscopy and cryogenic electron tomography but will also include complementary data sources such as fluorescence microscopy, structural modeling, and related techniques.
Candidates should have a PhD with ten or more years of experience in software development, programming, and artificial intelligence techniques. Experience in statistical methods and structural or cell biology will be a plus. Applicants must be fluent in written and spoken English and able to work independently as well as collaboratively as part of a multidisciplinary team. The lab provides a stimulating environment with dedicated access to high-performance computer servers, access to high-end instrumentation, and close collaborations with structural and cell biologists focusing on workflow development for multiscale imaging.
If interested, please contact niels.volkmann@pasteur.fr and include your CV (in English) and contact information for three possible referees.
