Dear all, A postdoctoral position is available in Geoff Waldo's group at Los Alamos working on a program project to create new protein reagents that can enhance macromolecular crystallization. The project leaders are Geoff Waldo, Todd Yeates, David Eisenberg, Andrew Bradbury and myself. If you are interested, please contact Geoff Waldo at gfpg...@gmail.com!
All the best, Tom T Postdoctoral Fellow at Los Alamos National Laboratory We are seeking an outstanding postdoctoral candidate (background in molecular biology, protein chemistry, protein structure modeling) who will create new protein reagents to assist crystallization of macromolecules. This position will support a multi-investigator NIH P01 interdisciplinary project to overcome barriers to crystallization, the major bottleneck in structure determination of macromolecules and their complexes. This position is available immediately. Required Skills: A strong background in one or more of the following areas. Biology: molecular biology, protein expression and purification, or phage/yeast display, making and using protein expression libraries in E. coli or yeast. Highly desirable: protein design structural modeling and a strong foundation in protein molecular biology, with experience working closely with experimental teams. Other general requirements include: demonstrated record of scientific achievement through publications and presentations, strong problem-solving skills, and ability to conduct research independently. Education: A Ph.D. Biology, Biophysics, Biochemistry, or equivalent completed within the last five years or soon to be completed. Notes to Applicants: For further information about the position and project, please contact Dr. Geoffrey S. Waldo (gfpg...@gmail.com<mailto:gfpg...@gmail.com>). Other investigators on the project include Drs. Thomas Terwilliger, Todd Yeates, Andrew R. M. Bradbury, David Eisenberg.
