Commission Cryo Electron Microscopy information

What is the difference between Commission Cryo Electron Microscopy vs Cryo Electron Microscopy Technician?

AspectCommission Cryo Electron MicroscopyCryo Electron Microscopy Technician
CredentialsTypically requires advanced degrees and certifications in electron microscopy or related fieldsUsually requires technical certifications and relevant training in cryo-EM techniques
Work EnvironmentResearch labs, universities, or specialized facilities with focus on commissioning and validationLaboratory settings performing routine sample preparation and imaging tasks
Job FocusOverseeing the commissioning, calibration, and validation of cryo-EM equipmentOperating cryo-EM instruments, preparing samples, and capturing images

Commission Cryo Electron Microscopy involves overseeing the setup and validation of cryo-EM systems, requiring advanced expertise. In contrast, Cryo Electron Microscopy Technicians focus on operating equipment and preparing samples. Both roles are essential in cryo-EM workflows but differ in responsibilities and qualifications.

Job description

Job Description

Field of research:

Single particle cryo-electron microscopy and X-ray crystallization of viral glycoproteins, immunogen design, virology, biochemistry and biophysics.

Purpose of the Research Project(s):

The goal of our research is to develop vaccines and therapeutics targeting human pathogens.

Duties and Responsibilities:

20% Structure-based and machine-learning immunogen design for protein subunit and mRNA vaccines based on viral surface glycoproteins (construct design, recombinant expression in mammalian cells, purification, and stability assays),

20% Characterize protein antigenicity (binding assays using ELISAs, SPR and biolayer interferometry to evaluate binding kinetics and affinity of antibodies or designed proteins),

15% Perform structural studies (high-throughput cryo-electron microscopy of subunit vaccines as well as of complexes between viral glycoproteins and monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies as well as X-ray crystallography),

10% Design and execution of virology assays,

10% Analysis of the data to help determining the research strategy,

10% Lead projects and/or major project tasks,

10% Interactions with collaborators within our network and writing of manuscripts for publication

5% Provide guidance and direction to project staff, students and postdocs

Requirements:

Master's Degree in Biochemistry or related field and four years 4 years of experience in related field like: Cryo-electron microscopy, virology assays (pseudotyped virus generation, cellular entry and neutralization assays), protein expression in mammalian cells and purification

Equivalent education and/or experience may substitute for minimum qualifications except when there are legal requirements, such as a license, certification, and/or registration.

Desire:

Expertise in protein and vaccine design, experience in high throughput automation using Beckman Biomek.
