[ccp4bb] Position available in New York City

[Jeffrey B Bonanno]

Hi All,

I would like to bring the following exciting opportunity in the Almo Lab at 
Albert Einstein College of Medicine to your attention:


We seek a post doctoral fellow with interest in the development of novel 
biologics for the treatment of infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases and 
cancers. The successful candidate will have extensive experience in mammalian 
protein expression, and protein design and/or protein chemistry. We have 
established a highly modular platform technology for the antigen-selective 
targeting of T cells, which affords the unique opportunity to expand and 
activate, or delete, specific disease-relevant T cell populations without 
global impact on the T cell repertoire. A variant of this biologic platform is 
currently the subject of a multi-arm clinical trial for HPV-driven head and 
neck cancer and an IND has recently been approved to evaluate efficacy against 
Wilms' tumors. The Initial focus of the current program is on the use of these 
biologics as monotherapies, and for the development of novel CAR T cell 
approaches, for the eradication of HIV and CMV infections and the treatment of 
malignancies. Interested candidates should send a CV, including the names of at 
least two references to steve.almoeinsteinmed.edu.

Thanks,
Jeff

[Thomas Ursby]

Dear all,

We have an open 2-year's position for a scientist to develop 
time-resolved activities at the new MicroMAX beamline at the MAX IV 
Laboratory (https://www.maxiv.lu.se/).


_Closing date for applications is Sunday January 17th._

For more information and to apply see:
https://lu.varbi.com/en/what:job/jobID:371045
or contact me at thomas.ur...@maxiv.lu.se

/MAX IV Laboratory has received funding from the Novo Nordisk Foundation 
(http:// novonordiskfonden.dk/en) for a new beamline called MicroMAX, a 
micro-focus macromolecular crystallography beamline. The Macromolecular 
Crystallography (MX) Group is responsible for the design, construction 
and future operation of the MicroMAX beamline, as well as for the BioMAX 
beamline that is in user operation.//

//
//MicroMAX will extend the possibilities in macromolecular 
crystallography in particular in the areas of serial crystallography and 
time-resolved crystallography. By exploiting the pioneering performance 
of the MAX IV 3-GeV storage ring, MicroMAX will provide world class 
performance for experiments requiring a highly brilliant microfocus 
X-ray beam. The microfocus beam will be used for highly automated, 
monochromatic rotation crystallography, but the unique beam will be in 
particular beneficial for time-resolved experiments and serial 
crystallography. The time-resolved activity will use a UV-vis-IR laser 
setup for triggering of light sensitive samples or using 
caged-compounds, ligand-mixing using microfluidics, and other methods 
and instrumentation to study dynamics. The sample environment laboratory 
and a second experiment hutch are available to support and extend the 
capabilities of the time-resolved setup in the first experiment hutch. 
We have started developing activities in the field of serial 
crystallography and regularly perform experiments at BioMAX./

understanding in the vital process of the translation of the genetic  
code into functional proteins and its regulation by natural factors or  
de-novo designed translational inhibitors.


The successful candidates (in particular for the postdoctoral  
position) should have a strong interest – and possibly experience -  
in the field of Structural Biology and have demonstrated the ability  
to conduct high quality research.
Prospective PhD students should have an undergraduate degree in  
related field and possess good laboratory skills.


Applicants should send a brief letter of motivation, curriculum vitae,  
statement of research accomplishments and interests, and the names of  
three referees, preferably by e-mail to

[Spiller, Benjamin]

Dear CCP4 Users,

We have an opening for one federally funded post-doctoral or staff scientist 
position for a structural biologist to study bacterial voltage-gated sodium 
channels.   The ideal candidate will be self-motivated, creative, organized, 
and experienced in crystallography.   The lab is a structural biology group 
within the department of Pharmacology at the Vanderbilt University medical 
center in Nashville, TN.

Nashville combines the features of a college town with those of a fairly large 
city.  Urban amenities include restaurants, museums, theatres, music, yet the 
cost of living is moderate and the city is very livable.

Please email questions, CV’s, and references to Ben Spiller
