A postdoctoral position at Yale University School of Medicine is available
immediately for highly motivated, creative individuals with a strong
interest in the structure, function, and pharmacology of signaling proteins
implicated in neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases. We are presently
focusing our efforts on central nervous system transporters using a
combination of steady-state kinetics, radioligand binding, X-ray
crystallography, and other complementary biochemical/biophysical techniques.

 

The laboratory is located in newly-renovated space in the Department of
Cellular and Molecular Physiology in a highly collaborative environment. We
have state of the art tissue culture facilities, purification equipment, and
LINUX workstations. We have regular access to Mosquito and Art Robbins
Gryphon LCP (lipidic cubic phase) crystallization robots, Formulatrix imager
with UV detection, in-house X-ray diffractometer, synchrotron beamlines, and
number of biophysical instruments. These include a CD spectrometer,
analytical ultracentrifuge, differential scanning calorimeter, isothermal
titration calorimeter, surface plasmon resonance, static/dynamic light
scattering, and stopped flow fluorometer. 

 

Candidates must hold (or soon expect to hold) a Ph.D. in biochemistry,
biophysics, or a related field and have a strong publication record.
Experience in recombinant DNA methods, protein expression and purification,
and X-ray crystallography is required. Prior work with membrane proteins,
insect/mammalian expression systems, and functional assays is preferred. The
candidate must have an excellent command of oral and written English. He/she
must be capable of working independently but also be willing to work as part
of a team.

Applicants should send a CV, along with a summary of previous research
experience and interests, and arrange to have 3 reference letters sent to
