Dear colleagues,

The MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology wishes to recruit a new 
Programme Leader/Programme Leader Track to the Division of Structural 
Studies. We are seeking to appoint an outstanding scientist with 
game-changing ideas for the development and application of novel methods 
in molecular/cellular structural biology that will lead to solving 
long-term fundamental questions. Potential areas of interest include, 
but are not
limited to:

1. Sample preparation and/or experimental approaches in electron 
microscopy, including cryo-electron tomography and labelling.
2. Single-molecule and other biophysical techniques to understand 
macromolecular dynamics.
3. Computational approaches to provide quantitative understanding of 
macromolecular structure and dynamics.

The MRC-LMB is one of the birthplaces of molecular and structural 
biology and is extremely well equipped for the research envisioned, 
including crystallography, electron microscopy and NMR, as well as light 
microscopy and biophysics, supported by electronic and mechanical workshops.

We welcome applicants from all scientific disciplines. The appointment 
will be made at either Programme Leader or Programme Leader-track level, 
depending on achievements and experience.

For informal enquiries please contact David Barford 
(dbarford at mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk), Lori Passmore (passmore at mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk) 
or Sjors Scheres (scheres at mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk).
