Postdoctoral Position at UCSF -- Structural Biology of Kinase-Scaffold
Complexes
Seeking outstanding candidates for postdoctoral position at UCSF focused
on the structure and function of multi-protein cell signaling
complexes. We are interested in understanding how scaffolding proteins
and other protein-protein interactions organize MAP kinase signaling
cascades. Our lab employs a multidisciplinary approach involving
crystallography and other structural methods combined with enzyme
kinetics, genetics and cell biology to understand fundamental mechanisms
of signaling systems both in vitro and in vivo. Candidate should have
experience in crystallography, molecular biology and protein
biochemistry. Position is at the beautiful, state-of-the-art UCSF
Mission Bay Campus, and includes access to the UCB/UCSF ALS beamline.
Please send CV to Wendell Lim ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and arrange to have
three letters of reference sent by email. Please write "Application for
Structural Biology Postdoctoral Position" in your subject header.
