[3dem] Postdoc position in membrane protein structure and function lab at the NIH

[Anirban Banerjee]

Dear colleague,



I have openings for postdoc positions in my lab. Please help circulate to
interested candidates.





*Postdoctoral position*



There is an open postdoctoral position for a membrane protein
structure-function project in my lab at the NIH. We are currently focusing
on integral membrane enzymes (*Science. *2018,  doi:
10.1126/science.aao6326) and transporters (*J Biol Chem.* 2018, doi:
10.1074/jbc.M117.817478) (*Cell Reports* 10.1016/j.celrep.2020.107837).





Here is the formal announcement -



*EUNICE KENNEDY SHRIVER NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF CHILD HEALTH AND HUMAN
DEVELOPMENT, BETHESDA, MD AND SURROUNDING AREA*



*Position Description: *
The research group of Dr. Anirban Banerjee at the National Institutes of
Health (NIH) is seeking candidates for postdoctoral fellows . The broad
interests of the lab are in membrane protein structure and function. We
combine structural techniques such as cryoEM and macromolecular
crystallography and together with biophysical and biochemical methods such
as reconstitution based assays, high resolution microscopy and small
molecule screening to investigate the structural bases of the mechanisms of
a number of membrane proteins. We also collaborate extensively with
computational biophysicists.



The lab has state-of-the-art equipment and facilities. NICHD is now part of
a consortium that has access to a Titan Krios on a regular basis. We have
dedicated access to the 23-ID and 24-ID beam lines at the APS.  Our
laboratory is part of the Cell Biology and Neurobiology Branch in the
Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human
Development (NICHD).



*Qualifications:*
The candidates should hold a Ph. D. degree (by the time of joining the lab),
be author of at least one first author publication and have a strong
background in biochemistry or structural biology. Experience with basic
molecular biology, protein expression, purification and biochemical
characterization are required. Prior experience in membrane protein
biochemistry or mammalian expression system for protein purification will
be added advantages.



It is absolutely essential the candidate is motivated and prepared to put
in the best efforts for fruition of the project goals. We are a small,
friendly lab and ability to work as part of a cohesive group is important.



Thanks very much in advance for any help.



Warm regards,



Anirban
