A postdoctoral or junior staff position, with demonstrated experience
in electron cryo-microscopy, is open in the laboratory of Dr. Timothy
S. Baker at the University of California - San Diego in the Chemistry
and Biochemistry Department.
Applications will be accepted from individuals who possess a degree
in the Natural Sciences (Ph. D. for postdoctoral position only). The
salary and level of the position will be commensurate with the
candidate's experience and skills.
The research focuses on structure-function studies of macromolecular
assemblies (primarily viruses) with cryo-TEM and 3D image
reconstruction techniques. Highly-motivated candidates with
significant experience in cryo-TEM and/or cryo-tomography, along with
experience in image reconstruction and molecular image analysis, are
encouraged to apply. See http://cryoem.ucsd.edu/facilities.shtm for
a description of facilities. Image processing is performed in-house
on a three-node Linux cluster housed at the San Diego Supercomputer
Center, an organized research unit of UCSD. Additional computations
are performed using the NSF supported TeraGrid resources.
San Diego is a vibrant, cosmopolitan city, known for its beautiful,
year-round climate. The area includes about 70 miles of beaches, and
water sports such as surfing, snorkeling, kayaking and fishing are
all very popular. Winter alpine skiing and the deserts are within a
couple of hours drive. The city is home to both the San Diego
Chargers and the San Diego Padres. Mexico is close enough for an
afternoon trip.
Qualified applicants should send a CV that identifies areas of
expertise and interest, employment history, a publications list, and
the names and contact information of three, professional references
to Dr. Timothy S. Baker, Professor of Chemistry/Biochemistry _and
Molecular Biology, _University of California, San Diego_, 9500 Gilman
Drive MC-0378, La Jolla, California 92093-0378. Alternatively, CVs
may be sent to tsb at ucsd.edu. See http://cryoem.ucsd.edu for more
information about the laboratory.
