Please see below regarding positions available in my lab at Brown
University.

*POSTDOCTORAL AND TECHNICIAN POSITIONS (DEACONESCU LAB)*

*at Brown University, USA*

*The Deaconescu Lab* at Brown University has one opening for a postdoctoral
researcher and one for a technician. The laboratory's interests lie
primarily in stress responses, with particular emphasis on responses to DNA
damage. We utilize a combination of biochemical, biophysical and structural
techniques. (e.g. X-ray crystallography, electron microscopy). Examples of
recent work are Schwartz et al, *Protein Science *(2021), Brugger et
al, *Nature
Communications *(2020), Dorich et al, *Genes & Development *(2019), Vemu et
al. *Science *(2018), Le TT et al. *Cell* (2018), Szyk et al, *Cell* (2014).

*A successful postdoctoral candidate* should have an established
track-record of publications in peer-reviewed journals; solid experience
with protein biochemistry (their purification and assay development). We
have a variety of projects available at different stages of development,
including some that involve drug design. Prior knowledge of crystallography
and/or single-particle electron microscopy is highly desirable, but not
required. Knowledge of bacterial genetics also an asset.  Must be highly
motivated and work well independently as well as in a team. Excellent
spoken and written English are required. Newly minted PhDs are encouraged
to apply.


*A successful technician candidate* should preferably have a degree in
chemistry/biological sciences and more than two years experience at the
bench, at the minimum experience with molecular biology, and ideally, also
with protein purification and crystallization.

*Interested candidates should send a CV, a one page research experience
summary and contact information for three references to *
alexandra_deaconescu[at]brown.edu. Please use “postdoctoral candidate”
or “technician candidate" as a subject.


Positions are available immediately. Brown University, an Ivy League school
ranked as 5th best in the US by the Wall Street Journal, is located in
Providence, Rhode Island less than one hour away by train from Boston.
Rhode Island provides plenty of opportunities for outdoor recreation with
beautiful beaches and sailing and we offer a friendly and supportive lab
environment.
