[3dem] Lecturer in cryo-ET position open at the University of York (= assistant professorship)

[Jamie Blaza]

Dear 3DEM,

There is a permanent academic position as a Lecturer in cryo-ET open at the
University of York. We are looking for someone who will lead a research
program making the most of the stunning advances that are occurring in
cryo-ET. It is a research and teaching post but with a strong focus on
research in the early years. It is roughly equivalent to a tenure-track
assistant professor position in the US.

The successful candidate will be a member of the York Structural Biology
Laboratory (YSBL), a research centre built around ~15 structural biology
groups from the Departments of Chemistry and Biology. Our Cryo-EM facility,
supported by expert technical staff (Johan Turkenburg and Sam Hart), is
housed in the custom-built Dodsons Building and has an energy-filter
equipped Glacios and an incoming FIB-mill. YSBL is also well equipped for
crystallography and protein NMR. Beyond YSBL, the Bioscience Technology
Facility houses brilliant facilities for light microscopy, mass spec, and
biophysics (amongst many other things!).

YSBL has a research culture that is both supportive and ambitious, which we
are all enormously proud of. It is also an environment where people readily
work together to achieve more than they could alone. To me, it’s a special
place to work.

The successful candidate will be a member of the Department of Chemistry,
ultimately teaching on the Biochemistry and Chemistry degree programs.

On a personal note, I took a similar position in 2018 and haven’t looked
back since! Applicants are welcome to get in touch with me for an informal
chat.

All the best,
