CryoEM Manager Position in NY

[David Stokes]

MANAGER IN CRYOELECTRON MICROSCOPY
NEW YORK STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY CENTER

The New York Structural Biology Center ( http//www.nysbc.org ) seeks a technical 
manager for a high-end, state or the art facility in Cryoelectron Microscopy. 
The facility will include three cryoelectron microscopes at 120, 200, and 300 
kV, the last with a liquid-helium stage and an energy filter, as well as all 
necessary ancillary equipment.  The facility will be used by two in-house 
research groups and by investigators from a consortium of nine New York academic 
research institutions on a broad range of biological targets employing any of 
three CryoEM methodologies:  tomography, single-particles, and crystallography. 
   The appointee will act initially as liaison between scientists and 
manufacturers in developing specifications, testing and installing the three 
instruments, and later in maintaining their performance, and in supporting users 
applications and new developments.  In addition, the appointee will implement a 
variety of specialized technologies associated with cryoEM, especially for 
automated data collection.  A strong technical background in electron microscopy 
is essential and familiarity with biological samples would be a bonus.  Send a 
biographical sketch, a brief statement of previous research experience, together 
with names and addresses of three individuals who can provide letters of 
recommendation.  Applications should be sent as soon as possible to: CryoEM 
Search Committee, at nysbc at nysbc.org .

P.S.  This same add ran about a year ago, but now the funding has finally come 
through to move forward with this project.
