Job description: Computational modeling of 3D structures of large macromolecular assemblies

Structures of protein complexes contribute to our understanding of mechanistic details of biological processes and the roles of these molecular machines in disease. However, structures of large protein assemblies are difficult to obtain using any single experimental method. We use computational modeling to determine such structures by combining a variety of experimental data, physical theories, and statistical inference.

On the method development front, we are interested in developing methods to improve model representation and validate the models. On the applications front, we are applying these modeling methods to characterize assemblies at cell-cell junctions.

Qualification & Experience required:

– Bachelor or Masters in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering or Bioinformatics or Physics with Minimum % of marks: 75.

– At least 1 year of project experience that involves programming; ideally in computational biology.

Skills required:
