Recruitment

We are seeking postdoctoral researchers at any time depending on our funding. In order to join us, some fellowship programs such as RIKEN SPDR and JSPS fellowship are available. Young graduate students are also welcome through RIKEN JRA and IPA programs.

Job opening at present

Title and positions

Postdoctoral researchers, 2 positions

Description

Conformational dynamics of membrane protein complexes and protein-nucleic acids complexes in cellular environments using multi-scale molecular dynamics simulations. To analyze slow dynamics related to their functions, coarse-grained MD simulations and/or free-energy calculations based on enhanced conformational sampling methods will be performed on supercomputers like Fugaku. Computational analysis of protein-ligand binding to regulate their functions is also included in the possible research projects. For more details, see here.
