postdoctoral associate to start immediately. The candidate will use state
of the art biophysical methods to investigate protein structure and
dynamics underlying the molecular mechanisms of: (1) the functional and
pathogenic biomolecular condensation of mRNA binding proteins, and (2) the
self-assembly and regulation of cell cytoskeleton proteins. Expertise in
biological NMR, cryo-electron microscopy, and/or advanced biochemical and
molecular biology methods is preferred. The position is NIH-funded, and the
applicant will have access to well-equipped core facilities for solution
and solid state NMR, and electron microscopy. Davis California is ideally
situated midway between the relaxing wilderness of Lake Tahoe in the Sierra
Nevada mountains and the vibrant biotechnology hub of the San Francisco Bay
Area.
