STAFF SCIENTIST AND TECHNICIAN POSITIONS AVAILABLE at Brown University, USA
The Deaconescu Lab at Brown University has one immediate opening for a staff scientist and one technician. The laboratory’s interests lie primarily in stress responses, with particular emphasis on responses to DNA damage and the mechanochemistry of DNA-based motors. We utilize a combination of biochemical, biophysical and structural techniques. (e.g. X-ray crystallography, electron microscopy). Examples of recent work are: Brugger et al, JBC (2023, 2024), Schwartz et al, Protein Science (2021), Brugger et al, Nature Communications (2020), Dorich et al, Genes & Development (2019), Vemu et al. Science (2018), Le TT et al. Cell (2018). Successful candidates would have solid experience with protein biochemistry (including their purification, functional characterization and assay development). We have a variety of projects available at different stages of development, including some that involve drug design. Prior knowledge of crystallography and/or single-particle electron microscopy is highly desirable, but not required. Generous compensation, benefits and vacation time are available to those qualified. A successful technician candidate should preferably have a degree in chemistry/biological sciences and more than two years experience at the bench, at the minimum with molecular biology, and ideally, also with protein purification and crystallization. Interested candidates should send a CV, a one page research experience summary and contact information for three references to alexandra_deaconescu[at]brown.edu. Please use “staff scientist” or “technician candidate” as a subject. Brown University, an Ivy League school ranked as 5th best in the US by the Wall Street Journal, is located in Providence, Rhode Island less than one hour away by train from Boston. Rhode Island provides plenty of opportunities for outdoor recreation with beautiful beaches and sailing.
