</div>
<div> The Hasan laboratory (https://www.ibbr.umd.edu/profiles/s-saif-hasan) is recruiting a post-doctoral fellow with an interest in utilizing high-resolution single particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM) to investigate the structural biology of
membrane proteins implicated in cancer and infectious diseases. The CBT houses a new 200 keV Thermo Fisher Talos Arctica microscope equipped with a Gatan K3 direct electron detector and a Volta phase plate. A 200 keV Thermo Fisher Glacios microscope equipped
with a Falcon III direct electron detector will be acquired soon. A 120 keV FEI Tecnai T12 TEM equipped with a CCD camera is available for negative stain imaging. </div>
<div> </div>
<div> Applicants should have experience in-</div>
<div>1.<span style="white-space:pre"> </span>structural biology (preferably cryoEM)</div>
<div>2.<span style="white-space:pre"> </span>molecular biology including handling of eukaryotic cell lines for protein production</div>
<div>3.<span style="white-space:pre"> </span>membrane protein chemistry</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> In addition to the latest cryoEM facilities at CBT, the fellow will have access to tools in NMR (950, 800, 600, 500, 400 MHz), X-ray crystallography, small angle X-ray scattering, mass-spectrometry and computational biology. The CBT will provide
the fellow with opportunities to work closely in collaboration with scientists in industry and in national labs located nearby (i.e. NIH, NIST). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> Applicants who have received their PhD or MD/PhD degree should submit a single PDF file containing a short cover letter (no more than one page), a detailed curriculum vitae, contact information for three references, and up to 5 reprints of representative
first authorship publication(s) to S. Saif Hasan, PhD (sshasan@som.umaryland.edu; Assistant Professor, UMB) and David J. Weber, PhD (dweber@som.umaryland.edu; Professor, UMB, and Director of CBT). Highly qualified applicants will be contacted soon after their
application is received to investigate specific fellowship opportunities in the CBT. </div>
