Hi all,
The Protein Data Bank in Europe (PDBe; pdbe.org) is looking to recruit an expert structural biologist to join the PDBe curation team at the EBI near Cambridge, UK. Applicants should be computer-literate and possess a recent PhD in some area of structural biology or structural chemistry as well as a broad knowledge in molecular biology or biochemistry. An in-depth knowledge of protein structure (including structure determination, analysis and validation) is essential. A few years of post-doctoral research experience in structural biology, as well as hands-on experience in the determination of protein structure is highly desirable.
The ideal candidate will be familiar with Linux/Unix operating systems and molecular graphics software. Basic programming skills, e.g. with Perl, Python or Java, would be an advantage. Given the extensive interactions with colleagues in the PDBe team as well as with international collaborators, depositors and users, excellent written and oral communication skills, fluency in English, ability to work in a team and attention to detail are required.
More details and a link to the electronic application procedure can be found here:

Feel free to pass this on to suitable candidates!
--Gerard
PS: Some hints for prospective applicants: it doesn't hurt to add a nice cover letter in which you explain why you would love to be a PDB annotator and why PDBe strikes you as a brilliant place to work. Also, if you should get invited for an interview and we ask you what the main colour of our website is, please don't answer "blue"...
