What is the difference between Xray Crystallography vs Xray Diffraction Technician?

AspectXray CrystallographyXray Diffraction Technician
Required CredentialsBachelor's or higher in Chemistry, Physics, or related field; specialized training in crystallographyAssociate's or Bachelor's in Physics, Materials Science, or related; training in X-ray techniques
Work EnvironmentResearch labs, universities, pharmaceutical companiesIndustrial labs, research facilities, manufacturing plants
Industry UsageStructural analysis of molecules, drug design, materials researchMaterial testing, quality control, structural analysis

While both roles involve X-ray techniques, Xray Crystallography focuses on determining molecular structures through crystal analysis, requiring advanced training. Xray Diffraction Technicians primarily operate X-ray equipment for material testing and quality control, often with less specialized education. The roles differ in complexity, focus, and work environment but share foundational knowledge of X-ray technology.

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.
