The Riedl laboratory at the La Jolla, CA campus of the Burnham Institute for Medical Research seeks a Staff Scientist in structural biology/crystallography. BIMR is a foremost research institute focused on revealing the fundamental molecular causes of disease using unique and collaborative approaches. The Riedl lab, as part of the Cancer Center, is dedicated to unraveling the molecular basis of central protein complexes in cell signaling and fostering early stages of drug compound development using structural biology. The Staff Scientist position encompasses all computational aspects of structure solution of cellular signaling complexes using X-ray crystallography, as well as software and hardware maintenance. Furthermore it entails drug compound related structure solution and molecular modeling. The successful candidate has a solid track record independently performing these tasks. Additionally, excellent communication and team building skills are paramount due to the highly interactive nature of the position which includes close interaction with lab members and collaborators. Competitive salary commensurate with experience.
Qualifications:
- A Ph.D. in biochemistry or a related field with a specialization in X-ray crystallography - Experience with all computational aspects of structure determination by X-ray crystallography is required - Strong expertise using and maintaining current X-ray data processing software, structure solution and refinement packages, and modeling suites Interested candidates having the above qualifications should email a cover letter describing their experience, a CV, and the names of three references to [email protected]
