A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Prof. Richard
Baxter at Yale University (baxterlab.yale.edu). The successful candidate
will address structural and mechanistic questions regarding the innate
immune response of the malaria vector *Anopheles gambiae*. They will join a
research group that combines biophysical techniques such as x-ray
crystallography, small-angle x-ray scattering and/or EM with biochemistry,
chemical and cell biology. The laboratory is located in the Kline Chemistry
Laboratory (newly renovated June 2014) with access to in-house x-ray
diffraction and biophysical instrumentation, cryo-EM facility and expanding
facilities for proteomics and high-throughput biology at the Yale Keck
Center and the Yale West Campus.


A PhD in chemistry, biochemistry, biophysics or other relevant discipline
is required. Experience with macromolecular crystallography, SAXS, electron
microscopy or mass spectrometry is preferred, experience in vector biology
or host-pathogen interactions is a plus.
