Postdoctoral Researcher. Biomolecular Nanotechnology Lab

A postdoctoral position is available in the area of Engineering conductive proteins in the group of Prof. Aitziber L. Cortajarena (Biomolecular Nanotechnology Lab at CIC biomaGUNE). The position is within the European FET-Open Project e-Prot “Engineered conductive proteins for bioelectronics”, which focuses on the development of efficient conductive protein systems for novel green and sustainable conductive materials.

e-Prot is a collaborative and interdisciplinary project that exploits the potential of protein engineering to encode electron and proton conduction in a protein system with self-assembly properties. In particular, the project at CIC biomaGUNE focuses on the design and characterization of robust proteins, with optimized electronic and ionic conductivity and to establish rules to encode conductivity in protein
scaffolds.
