A postdoctoral position is available for a highly motivated individual in the laboratory of Filip Van Petegem, University of British Columbia (UBC), Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (http://www.biochem.ubc.ca ; http://crg.ubc.ca/VanPetegem/).
The postdoctoral fellow will be expected to work on a project involving ion channels. Techniques involved include everything in the pipeline to solve crystal structures, biophysical techniques to measure protein-protein interactions, and electrophysiology. The successful candidate must have experience solving crystal structures, with a proven track record through published articles in peer-reviewed journals. Experience with cloning and protein purification is a plus. We will also consider electrophysiologists seeking to pursue structural studies. Our laboratory is situated in the new Life Sciences Centre ( http://www.lsi.ubc.ca), at the UBC Point Grey campus in Vancouver. We are part of the cardiovascular research group (http://crg.ubc.ca/), a group of 6 laboratories committed to understand basic mechanisms of ion channels, heart disease, and excitation-contraction coupling. Interested individuals should send an e-mail, including a CV with publication list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sincerely, Filip Van Petegem -- Filip Van Petegem, PhD Assistant Professor The University of British Columbia Dept. of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology 2350 Health Sciences Mall - Rm 2.356 Vancouver, V6T 1Z3 phone: +1 604 827 4267 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://crg.ubc.ca/VanPetegem/
