<div class="">Research Scientist Position in the Simons Electron
Microscopy Center at the New York Structural Biology Center</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The New York Structural Biology Center (NYSBC) seeks
an experienced electron microscopist to join the staff of the
Simons Electron Microscopy Center (<a href="http://semc.nysbc.org"
class="">http://semc.nysbc.org</a>). The NYSBC is a shared
center that supports state-of-the-art research in EM, NMR, and
X-ray crystallography. The facilities include five transmission
electron microscopes (including 2xTitan Krios) and a dual-beam
scanning electron microscope (with a Quorum cryo stage), which
support projects involving electron tomography, single particle
analysis and electron crystallography of both stained and
frozen-hydrated samples. Projects focus on 3D reconstruction of
biological assemblies ranging from the atomic structure of
membrane proteins, to the subunit organization in macromolecular
complexes and the cellular anatomy of developing organisms, to 3D
reconstructions of entire cells and their distributions within
their native tissue using the dual-beam microscope. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">To assist in these developments, NYSBC seeks an
individual with postdoctoral experience in biological electron
microscopy and image reconstruction. This individual will carry
out experiments in support of collaborative projects with
affiliated investigators and will also have opportunities to
pursue independent research projects. The individual should be
capable of multitasking, should enjoy working with other people,
should have a good working knowledge of electron microscopes and a
strong research background. Good communication skills are
essential.</div>
