[3dem] Electron Microscopy Laboratory Manager post in London

[Carolyn Moores]

Dear colleagues,

A reminder that the Department of Biological Sciences, Birkbeck College 
London, is seeking a committed and creative electron microscopist to be 
our Electron Microscopy Laboratory Manager.

Candidates should have extensive experience in transmission electron 
microscopy, ideally cryo-electron microscopy, and good familiarity with 
the recent advances in electron microscopy. We also welcome applicants 
from engineering or materials science backgrounds with motivation to 
learn structural biology methods.

The Laboratory Manager will be jointly responsible for efficient 
operation of our EM facility as a whole, including microscopes, user 
training and support, together with our in-post high resolution EM 
Facility Manager. Excellent communication skills and teamwork are essential.

The Birkbeck EM lab is located in an outstanding, collaborative 
environment for structural, molecular and cellular biology, in the 
Crystallography section of the Department of Biological Sciences, which 
forms part of the joint Institute for Structural and Molecular Biology 
with University College London. The EM lab is equipped with a 300 kV 
Polara microscope and a 200 kV FEG system with K2 and DE20 direct 
electron detectors, 120 kV, 100 kV cryo microscopes, and new funding for 
a latest generation cryo microscope. We also have sample preparation 
equipment for single particles, high pressure freezing, vitrified 
sections and freeze substitution.
