<br>
Position Description: We are looking for a highly motivated Scientist to join our Small Molecule Physical Biochemistry group within the department of Biotherapeutic and Medicinal Sciences at Biogen. This is a contract position for 12 months starting in August
2020. The successful candidate will be part of a fast-paced and innovative community actively pursuing unmet medical needs in the neuroscience space. The primary responsibility of the candidate will be to prepare negative-stain EM samples, collect EM data
and, when required, train new users. Experience in cryo-EM is a plus. The candidate will also assist in preparing cryo-EM grids (freezing samples, clipping and maintain grids) along with assisting in data collection. The ideal candidate should be detail-oriented,
organized and demonstrate good lab practices.<br>
<br>
The successful candidate will:<br>
Provide support for negative-stain EM:<br>
1) Work with different groups at Biogen to prepare negatively stained samples and collect EM data.<br>
2) Train new users negative-stain EM grid preparation and data collection.<br>
<br>
Provide support for sample preparation and data collection with a Glacios cryo-electron microscope.<br>
1) Prepare samples (freezing and clipping grids), help develop a system to track and maintain frozen and clipped grids for data collection.<br>
2) Share responsibility with Biogen scientists for maintaining the Glacios cryo-electron microscope (beam alignment, calibration, cryo-cycling, etc).<br>
3) Help Biogen scientists to troubleshoot and solve technical problems.<br>
<br>
Qualifications: M.S. or PhD in Biophysics, Protein Biochemistry or related discipline. Relevant experience in a negative stain EM or cryo-EM lab is required. Must be a great team player with strong communication skills.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
