<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Department of Biochemistry in the Emory University School of Medicine is seeking to hire an Assistant/Associate Professor (tenure track) with expertise in structural biology and complementary biochemical/ biophysical approaches. The
Department of Biochemistry is a leading research division within the School of Medicine with particular strengths in the application of structural biology, biochemistry and cell biology to understanding diverse fundamental biological processes that underpin
human health and disease. These include but are not limited to the study of gene expression and control of protein synthesis, cell signaling, DNA repair and genome stability, and protein/ nucleic acid modification (for further details see:
<a href="http://www.biochem.emory.edu/">http://www.biochem.emory.edu/</a>). Current Department faculty also bridge the School of Medicine’s basic research mission with other broader initiatives such as the Winship Cancer Institute, Emory Antibiotic Resistance
Center (Emory ARC), Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC), and Emory Vaccine and Treatment Evaluation Unit (VTEU) Systems Biology Center.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The successful candidate will have a Ph.D. (or equivalent) and postdoctoral experience in biochemistry and structural biology, or closely related disciplines(s). The selected candidate will be expected to build a dynamic, independent research
program in the broadly defined area of structural biology, preferably using high-resolution single particle cryo-EM, x-ray crystallography, and/or single molecule optical microscopy studies, to build on Emory’s existing strengths in these areas. Selection
criteria for this position will include a track record of scientific productivity, as evidenced by primary research publications and extramural funding, as well as the candidate’s future research vision and potential to contribute the Department’s graduate
and medical student teaching.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Applicants should compile a single PDF file containing the following information<u>:</u><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The Department maintains an in-house automated X-ray diffraction system (Rigaku MicroMax-007) along with robots for making and setting screens. We are members of the South East Regional Collaborative Access Team at Argonne National Labs
providing for regular synchrotron access. To support Single Particle CryoEM, Emory recently purchased a 120 KV Talos L120C with Ceta 16M Camera and a 200 kV Talos Arctica with BioQuantum and K2/K3 Upgrade dedicated to single particle studies.<o:p></o:p></p>
