[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral Positions in the Liang laboratory at Emory University (Cryo-EM Focused)
Dear colleagues, We are excited to invite talented and highly motivated postdoctoral fellows to join the Liang Laboratory at Emory University School of Medicine. Our laboratory is dedicated to exploring high-resolution structural bases and deciphering the molecular mechanisms of large assemblies through an integrated approach, including biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), and X-ray crystallography. We are actively seeking exceptional postdoctoral candidates with a background in structural biology to contribute to two primary research areas: (1) investigating protein, RNA, and ribonucleoprotein complexes pivotal in the RNA synthesis machinery of non-segmented negative-sense (NNS) RNA viruses or (2) delving into filamentous assemblies associated with neurodegenerative disorders. We are looking for candidates with a Ph.D. in a biology-related field who are enthusiastic to engage in challenging and collaborative research. Preferred candidates will possess expertise in one or more areas: cryo-EM, macromolecular X-ray crystallography, biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, virology, or neurobiology. Join us in our pursuit of advancing structural biology and making impactful discoveries. We encourage interested individuals to apply directly through the following link: https://faculty-emory.icims.com/jobs/122532/job Please contact me directly for further information or questions at bo.li...@emory.edu<mailto:bo.li...@emory.edu>.

[ccp4bb] Core Director III Position at Emory University Integrated Electron Microscopy Core (IEMC)
Dear Colleagues, The Robert P. Apkarian Integrated Electron Microscopy Core at Emory seeks to appoint an enthusiastic, motivated, and experienced cryo-electron microscopist at the Core Director III level. The individual will develop and support service offerings in traditional electron microscopy (EM), high-resolution single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), and cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET). The Robert P. Apkarian Integrated Electron Microscopy Core has EM resources located at two sites on the Emory campus; This position will focus on supporting users at both sites. The EM-level instrumentation at Emory includes a ThermoFisher Talos Arctica 200 kV FEG-TEM, a JEOL JEM-2200FS 200 kV FEG-TEM, a ThermoFisher Talos 120 kV TEM, a JEOL JEM-1400 120 kV TEM, a Hitachi HT7700 120 kV TEM, and two FEG-SEMs. Additional preparative equipment includes two ThermoFisher Vitrobots, a Gatan CP3, several plasma cleaners and carbon evaporators, a Baltec HPM-010 high-pressure freezer, a Leica cryo-ultramicrotome, and a Leica freeze substitution device. The facility will enable researchers from existing investigators at Emory with established strengths in cell biology, bacteriology, virology, and structural biology, as well as new investigators from across Emory and the Atlanta area. This facility is strongly supported by the institutional commitment to advance EM and cryo-EM/cryo-ET at Emory University. A Master's or Ph.D. degree is required with demonstrated experience in all aspects of cellular and macromolecular resolution structure determination using cryo-EM/cryo-ET, including sample preparation, image acquisition, and data processing and analysis. Strong communication, technical, and teaching skills are essential for this position. Previous collaborative experience and user training in cryo-EM/cryo-ET would be an advantage. Key responsibilities include, but are not limited to: 1) Provide excellent maintenance and operation of installed equipment to ensure high electron microscope performance and generate high-quality cryo-EM/cryo-ET data. 2) Establish robust pipelines to support investigators in project development and provide outstanding service, including training new users, facilitating negative stain and cryo-EM /cryo-ET sample preparation and image acquisition, and providing guidance in data processing and analysis. 3) Work closely with the EM core Scientific Directors and Oversight Committee to identify future strategic opportunities for infrastructure investment or partnership with other research institutions. If you are interested, please check the full descriptions of this position, and apply through the following website: https://staff-emory.icims.com/jobs/107567/job (Job Number: 107567). Thank you, and we look forward to working with you!
