*POSTDOCTORAL POSITION*

*at Brown University, USA*

The Deaconescu Lab at Brown University has one opening for a 
postdoctoral researcher. The laboratory's interest is the interplay 
between DNA repair and other cellular processes including transcription 
and chromatin remodeling, and is focused on elucidating the function and 
mechanochemistry of DNA-based motors using a combination of biochemical, 
biophysical and structural techniques. (e.g. X-ray crystallography, 
small-angle X-ray scattering, transmission electron microscopy). For 
examples of work, please see Dorich V et al. /Genes & Development/ (in 
press) Le TT et al. /Cell/ (2018), Vemu A et al. /Science/ (2018), 
Kutter et al. /JMB/ (2016), Szyk et al, /Cell/ (2014), Deaconescu et 
al., /PNAS/ (2012) and Szyk et al., /NSMB/ (2012).

A successful candidate would be proficient with specimen preparation, 
data collection as well as the processing of data acquired using 
electron cryo-microscopy or X-ray crystallography and should also have 
the following qualifications: a Ph.D. in the field of structural biology 
or a related field; an established track-record of publications in 
peer-reviewed journals.Experience in protein biochemistry would be a 
plus, but training and technical assistance will be provided if the 
project requires it. Must be highly motivated and work independently as 
well as in a team. Excellent spoken and written English are required. 
New Ph.D. graduates are encouraged to apply.

*Interested candidates should send a CV, one page research experience 
summary and contact information for three references to
