Research offer  development of bioenzymes

Institute of Physical Chemistry Blas Cabrera (IQF) offers position for University Graduate  to join its headquarters in Madrid

Minimum requirements: 

• Academic qualifications: Graduate in Chemistry, Pharmacy, Biotechnology or related biosciences. • Good proficiency in English Merits to be considered: • Knowledge in structural biology • Knowledge in Linux and Python WHAT IS OFFERED We offer a training plan of 289 ECTS, to be completed along the 4 years of contract, and to be conducted by the groups of Dr. I. Pérez-Dorado (CSIC) and Prof. F. Gago (Universidad de Alcalá). This training plan will allow the candidate to acquire in-depth knowledge in computational approaches from a general perspective, as well as focused on R+D in biosciences and structural biology. This program ranges from training in the application and use of AI and other computational techniques applied to the study and design of proteins, to programming languages used in AI, and the creation of advanced software based on AI and machine learning, through the following objectives: 
 
1. Training in advanced in silico approaches for structural validation of bioenzymes 2. Training in state-of-the-art digital competencies for bioenzyme design 3. Training in in silico and in vitro approaches to validate the activity of synthetic bioenzymes 
 
The training program includes a 3-months stay in the group of Prof. Gago´s and a master in AI, as well as additional training in the form of courses and workshops in computational structural biology, AI and programing. Contract conditions:  Indefinite contract for a University Graduate associated with the Momentum Project of 4 years duration according to Spanish science law. Gross annual salary (37.000 € - 41.000 €). 

Project: Using protein design AI-based methods for the development of bioenzymes with therapeutic applications
