<div class="">Dear Colleagues,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">If you would like to live in beautiful San Diego, solve cool structures and be adored by your PI, we might have a job for you. We have a Staff Scientist position available immediately to perform single particle cryo EM studies on proteins relevant
for viral hemorrhagic fever pathogenesis and medical defense. You would have primary responsibility for data collection and oversight of our lab’s Titan Halo and Falcon 2 and for training of incoming students. We are looking for a collaborative person with
good communication skills and a strong interest in instrumentation who could pursue their own projects and assist those of others.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Our lab studies the proteins of viruses like Ebola, Marburg and Lassa, using structural biology and cellular analysis to understand how the very few proteins encoded by these viruses achieve a tremendous array of functions through the virus life
cycle. All proteins we work with are recombinant and harmless - don’t worry, there are no actual Ebola viruses. Although we are primarily a structural biology lab ourselves, we direct a five-continent collaboration of academic, industrial and government scientists
and clinicians. Hence, there is a unique opportunity to see how the structures fit into the cellular, organismal and population contexts and to use structural biology as a roadmap to help develop much-needed vaccines and therapeutics. </div>
