Deaconescu Lab at
Brown University has one opening for a postdoctoral researcher.
The
laboratory's interest is the interplay between DNA repair and
other cellular
processes including transcription and chromatin remodeling, and
is focused on
elucidating the function and mechanochemistry of DNA-based
motors using a
combination of biochemical, biophysical and structural
techniques. (e.g. X-ray
crystallography, small-angle X-ray scattering, transmission
electron
microscopy). For examples of work, please see Le et al. <i
