• To sign up for the AMBER newsletter and receive notifications of positions and other news, sign up on the AMBER website.

16 postdocs will be recruited in the first call, with each fellowship lasting 36 months. Scientists holding (or about to receive soon) a PhD in the areas of physics, chemistry, medical sciences, biological sciences, or other relevant areas are welcome to apply.

The postdocs will be recruited under the following topic areas

• Biological and biomedical imaging

• Lipids, lipid-based therapeutics and partially ordered systems

• Protein structure in health and pathology

• Probing, imaging and manipulating molecular interactions in biology

The postdoctoral fellows will be employed at these partner organisations: Lund University, the European Spallation Source (ESS), Sweden, the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), the International Institute of Molecular Mechanisms and Machines, (IMOL), Poland, and the Leicester Institute of Structural and Chemical Biology, United Kingdom.

AMBER partners comprise: Lund University/MAX IV, Sweden, the European Spallation Source (ESS), Sweden, the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL), France, the International Institute of Molecular Mechanisms and Machines, (IMOL), Poland, and the Leicester Institute of Structural and Chemical Biology, United Kingdom.

Their work will include clinical and biomedical projects. It will also include technique development work aimed at combining imaging techniques and data analysis to provide a more integrated picture of life processes in the context of health and disease.

The call closes on 18th of March 2024.

AMBER is funded by the EU Marie Skłodowska-Curie (MSCA) COFUND scheme.
