[3dem] Post-doctoral position at Brandeis University

[Niko Grigorieff]

Post-doctoral position at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute at 
Brandeis University

A post-doctoral position is immediately available to work on the 
development of new computational methods for the analysis of images of 
helical specimens, such as amyloid fibrils. Our laboratory has a 
well-established electron microscope facility, and equipment for 
protein purification, sample preparation, and image processing. Image 
data are currently being generated by several projects in our 
laboratory. Processing is performed on a dedicated Linux computer 
cluster and several workstations.

The role of the post-doctoral researcher will be to improve existing, 
and develop new image processing algorithms to push structure 
determination by electron microscopy towards atomic resolution. 
Experience in electron cryo-microscopy and image processing is 
desirable, but not required.

Interested individuals should contact Dr. Nikolaus Grigorieff 
(niko at brandeis.edu) and include a CV, statement of research interests, 
and the names, addresses and e-mails of three references.
