Dear all,
We are looking for 2 postdocs to join the Laboratory of Structural Cell
Biology at the NHLBI, NIH (Bethesda, USA). Our lab studies how cellular
architecture and molecular organization control biological function. We
combine *in situ* cryo-ET/cryo-EM, single-particle cryo-EM, cell biology,
biochemistry, and computational image analysis to understand cellular and
disease mechanisms at molecular resolution.
Our research areas include:
- *In situ* structural biology of neuronal injury, axon repair, and
regeneration
- *in situ* cryo-EM/ET analysis of cytoskeletal and membrane remodeling
- Integrative analysis of cell signaling, membrane organization, and
disease-associated cellular states
- Subtomogram analysis, structural interpretation, and integration with
functional cell biology
- Development of new workflows for connecting cellular phenotypes to
molecular mechanisms
We welcome candidates with a background in cryo-EM/cryo-ET, structural
biology, cell biology, biophysics, neuroscience, membrane biology,
cytoskeleton, or biochemistry. Candidates with strong biological or
structural training who are eager to learn *in situ* structural workflows
are also encouraged to apply. This position is best suited for a candidate
who enjoys integrative and technically challenging research.
The lab provides a collaborative environment with abundant access to
state-of-the-art cryo-EM/cryo-ET instrumentation and computational
resources. Salary will follow NIH postdoctoral stipend guidelines, and it
is very competitive. Interested applicants should send a CV and contact
information for three references.
Thank you and best regards,
Naoko
