No

Offer Description
The research program is part of the study of the regulation of folding phenomena and the regulation of protein levels and activities in cells, and the use of the resulting information to design new molecules capable of allosterically regulating these processes. The researcher's work will focus on the theoretical study, development, and optimization of theoretical and applied approaches for the extraction of dynamic determinants fundamental to the function of complex systems and the design of their regulators.

The public call with detailed attendance and selection rules (Art 4 and
6) can be found at: (Use the "Apply for this Job" box below). The selections are open to candidates, Italian or foreigner, in possession, on the date of the deadline for submitting applications for the admission to the selection, of a master's degree or single-cycle degree obtained no more than six years previously are eligible to participate in the selection process. These degrees must be relevant to the subject of the research activity.

Further specific assessable qualifications (see Art. 1 par. 1 Call for applications):

Experience in the development and application of mechanical‑statistical methods and models for the study and simulation of protein folding processes; in the development and application of coarse‑grained models for the study of the dynamics of single proteins and complexes; in the development and application of advanced methods for the analysis of allosteric regulation from molecular simulations of single proteins and large protein complexes.

Selection process
