Job description

The São Carlos Institute of Physics (IFSC/USP), in collaboration with the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP), is offering a postdoctoral position focusing on in situ Cryo-Electron Tomography. This two-year scholarship aims to investigate the in situ structure of mitochondrial filamentous enzymes associated with the metabolic adaptation of tumors and their impact on organelle ultrastructure and morphology. The research builds upon Adamoski et al, NSMB 2024 (doi: 10.1038/s41594-023-01118-0), employing advanced methodologies like correlative light-electron microscopy (CLEM), cryo-electron tomography in lamella (cryo-ET), and expansion microscopy (ExM).

Qualification :

• Educational Background: Doctoral degree in Chemistry, Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Biophysics, Structural Biology, or related fields.
• Technical Skills: Practical experience in cell biology.
• Familiarity with FAPESP fellowship requirements (FAPESP Postdoc).

Application : 

Interested candidates should submit the following in Portuguese or English to Andre LB Ambrosio ([email protected]) and Sandra MG Dias ([email protected]):

• Cover Letter: Max 2 pages, detailing qualifications, scientific interests, reasons for applying, and alignment with essential and meriting criteria.
• Degree Certificate: A copy of the doctoral degree certificate or a document stating the expected date of obtaining the doctorate.
• References: Contact information for two referees willing to provide recommendations.
