CryoEM Scientist Position at NIS, San Diego CA

 

NanoImaging Services, Inc. (NIS) is an industry leader in providing comprehensive structural characterization of biopharmaceuticals by cryo electron microscopy, including high resolution single particle reconstructions.  In addition to our Tecnai T12 and Titan Krios microscopes, we have recently added a Glacios microscope to our custom-built facility located in San Diego, and are seeking a highly motivated and accomplished scientist to join our talented team.

The successful candidate will contribute to the imaging and/or analysis of samples of therapeutic interest using electron microscopy and advanced image processing techniques, which are integrated in a highly automated data processing pipeline.  Specific tasks may include preparation of negatively stained and vitrified specimen grids, data collection, processing digital electron micrographs with advanced computational methods, calculating three-dimensional image reconstructions, evaluating the results to ensure that high quality standards and client specifications are met, and compiling the results into detailed reports.  The individuals will collaborate closely with other team members in order to perform these tasks within demanding deadlines, and ensure that all data are recorded and organized in an electronic laboratory notebook system.  In addition, the successful candidate may investigate, test and implement improvements to both experimental and computational methods as needed to benefit the services offered by NIS.

The successful candidate must have a Ph.D. degree, or equivalent knowledge, and hands-on experience in cryoTEM sample preparation, cryoTEM data collection and image processing.  Relevant post-doctoral or industry experience, proven ability to collect data on Tecnai and Titan Krios microscopes, a published record of scientific accomplishments, experience with Leginon & Appion software, and technical expertise in high-resolution structure determination by cryo-EM single particle analysis would all be considered a plus.  The ability to maintain rigorous attention to detail and exceptional organizational skills, while priorities and workloads are dynamically shifting, is essential.  The successful candidate must also be able to promptly and clearly communicate in English and be able to work effectively in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment. 

Interested individuals are encouraged to send a resume with cover letter containing information on their qualifications, and contact information for three individuals with a scientific background and first hand knowledge of the applicant’s qualifications that can act as references, to:  admin at nimgs.com <mailto:admin at nimgs.com>.
