[3dem] Position available

[hsosa at aecom.yu.edu]

Dear all,

A post-doctoral position to study cystoskeletal macromolecular 
assemblies using cryo-electron microscopy will be available in July, 
2009 in our laboratory.  For this position the ideal candidate will  be 
interested in solving problems related to the structure and function of 
proteins and will be willing to learn or develop new experimental 
techniques as needed for the project.  Experience in any one of these 
areas is desirable: Electron Microscopy, Image Analysis, Cellular Light 
Microscopy, Protein Expression and Purification.

 In our lab we employ a variety of approaches such as site-directed 
mutagenesis, cryo-electron microscopy and single molecule fluorescence 
microscopy to investigate cystoskeletal motors at the molecular level 
(e. g. see: Tan et al., Structure 16: 1732-9, 2008; Asenjo & Sosa  PNAS 
106: 5657-62, 2009).  We have access to state of the art facilities for 
cryo-em work located at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and at 
the New York Structural Biology Center that include several cryo-em 
microscopes (Tecnai 200, Tecnai G2 F20, JEOL 1230, JEOL 2100F, JEOL 
3200FSC). Our laboratory is located in the Albert Einstein College of 
medicine in New York City, which offers excellent opportunities for 
scientific interaction within the college and with many other scientific 
institutions in the New York area.  Interested candidates please send a 
letter (or email), CV and reference names to:
