Post-doctoral position at Brandeis University
A post-doctoral position is immediately available to investigate
conformational changes in a chloride ion channel related to gating.
We have well-ordered, two-dimensional crystals of this channel that
are suitable for high-resolution studies (cf. Mindell et al. [2001]
Nature 409: 219-223). The candidate will join a multidisciplinary
team working in the field of structural biology. Our general goal
is to determine the three-dimensional structures of proteins and
macromolecular complexes using high-resolution electron cryo-microscopy.
Electron microscopy is a rapidly developing technique to explore a
large number of cellular structures with medical and biological
importance. We have a well-established electron microscope facility
and equipment for protein purification, sample preparation, and
image processing.
The ideal candidate will have a background in biochemistry, electron
microscopy, or X-ray crystallography.
Please send e-mail inquiries to niko at brandeis.edu.
Formal applications, which should include a CV, statement of research
interests, and the names, addresses, and e-mails of three references,
