[David Stokes]

Dear colleagues,

This is a reposting for a Research Scientist position in the cryo-EM 
facility at New York University Medical Center in downtown Manhattan. 
The NYU cryo-EM facility is a newly opened core facility that includes a 
Titan Krios G3i and a Talos Arctica with advanced detectors and Volta 
phase plates. Although current applications are focused on single 
particle cryo-EM, we foresee expansion to cryo-electron tomography and 
electron crystallography as the facility matures. To enable this 
process, we are now seeking candidates with experience in cryo-EM and a 
desire to work with our expanding community of users. This position will 
remain open until filled and a competitive salary will be provided based 
on experience.

Interested parties should send a curriculum vitae, a cover letter and 
names of three references to stokes at nyu.edu
