Department of Biophysics and the Lyda Hill Department of Bioinformatics (Green
Center for Systems Biology) at The University of Texas Southwestern Medical
Center invite applications for a jointly appointed tenure-track faculty
position, primarily at the level of assistant professor, but other ranks may be
considered. Appointment rank will be commensurate with academic accomplishments
and experience.</span></p>

seek outstanding candidates who work at the interface of super-resolution light
microscopy and cryoelectron tomography (cryoET). We are interested in both
developers of these cutting-edge technologies and high-end users focused on
important, mechanistic questions in biophysics and/or cell biology. Ideal
candidates will have experience in both super-resolution light microscopy and
cryoelectron microscopy. Successful candidates will benefit from an
infrastructure highly conducive to the creation of new methods and approaches.
In cryoET, they will have access to a newly purchased Thermo Fisher Aquilos II cryoFIB/SEM
equipped with both internal cryowidefield and external Leica cryo-confocal
fluorescence microscopes, as well as two Titan Krios cryo-electron microscopes
with direct electron detectors, including one with the latest generation cold
field emission gun and Selectris-X energy filter. In light microscopy they will
be embedded in a program with an outstanding track record of engineering
super-resolution, light-sheet and cleared tissue microscopes that are flexibly
designed to address a variety of imaging questions. To this effect the Green
Center for Systems Biology houses ~25 isolated microscope development bays
equipped with optical tables. The Department of Bioinformatics is responsible
for running BioHPC, a high performance computing and storage facility which is
equipped with ~1000 CPU and ~120 GPU nodes connected to 50 PB of storage for on
premise data analysis. All instruments have direct mounts to this computing
infrastructure. Besides offering a home in two vibrant, interactive, and
physically neighboring Departments, UTSW has a highly collaborative and
inclusive environment encompassing the entire spectrum of basic, translational,
and clinical research. </span></p>
