Laboratory at the University of California, Davis</a>, is seeking a
postdoctoral associate to join our team. Projects will include (1)
investigating protein structure and dynamics underlying the biomolecular condensation
of RNA-binding proteins and the self-assembly of cell cytoskeleton proteins;
and (2) characterizing native plant cell wall structure and the effect of
deconstruction approaches for bioproduct development. Experience in biological
NMR, cryo-electron microscopy, and/or advanced biochemical and molecular
biology methods is preferred, but not required. Training will be provided to
excellent candidates as needed. The applicant will be supported by an NIH grant
and have access to well-equipped facilities for solution and solid-state NMR,
and cryogenic and non-cryogenic electron microscopy. Additional experimental
resources are available through core facilities across the vibrant UC Davis
campus. Davis California is ideally situated midway between the relaxing
wilderness of Lake Tahoe in the Sierra Nevada mountains and the vibrant
biotechnology hub of the San Francisco Bay Area.<span></span></p>
