<p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"'>Two postdoctoral positions
are available in our laboratory in the Dept. of Structural Biology at Univ. of
Pittsburgh Medical Center. Our research is mainly focused on structural analysis
of macromolecular assemblies using various cryo-EM and image analysis methods,
including electron tomography, single particle analysis and electron
crystallography. Area of interests include (I) mechanism of
clathrin-mediated endocytosis and (II) architecture of chemoreceptor networks
for signal transduction in bacterial chemotaxis. Dept. of Structural
Biology is equipped with state-of-the-art EM equipments for cryo-EM studies,
including a FEI Polara 300kv helium stage with a 4kx4k CCD camera, a TF20 FEG
with a 4kx4k CCD camera, a T12spirit, and a FEI vitrobot for specimen
preparation. The department also has protein expression and purification
facilities. Qualifications include a Ph.D. and an interest in the
structural biology of complex molecular assemblies. Experiences in
electron microscopy, image processing, and cell biology/protein biochemistry
are desirable. Wages will be comparable to the NIH standard. Interested
candidates should send a CV including areas of expertise and interest, publications
list, and names and contact information for 3 references to Peijun Zhang at <st1:PersonName
w:st="on">pz@nih.gov</st1:PersonName>.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
