[3dem] Postdoctoral position at Wadsworth Center

[Haixin Sui]

A postdoctoral position, for
development and application of cryo-FIB technique in cellular electron
microscopy, is available in Dr. Haixin Sui’s lab at the Wadsworth Center,
Albany, NY. The lab studies structural basis of macromolecular assemblies and
organelles in epithelial cells for sensing or responding to extracellular
environmental changes. At Wadsworth Center, the excellent instrumental environment
allows junior researchers to learn and utilize a wide range of advanced 3DEM
techniques for their research. The state-of-the-art instrument at the 3D-EM facility here includes a Zeiss Neon-40 EsB FIB-SEM with a modified
Leica cryo-specimen transfer system, and a JEOL 3200 FFC/PP microscope with an
in-column energy filter and a K2 Summit DD camera, in addition to phase-plate
imaging capability.

 

The ideal candidate should
be a highly motivated individual holding a Ph.D. in physical sciences, structural
biology, or other biological sciences. Experience
in electron microscopy and computational image processing is advantageous, but
not essential. 

 

Interested applicants
should send a CV, a brief summary of research experience/interest, and contact
information of 3 references to “hsui at albany.edu”.
