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 Dorich et
