Dear All,
I wanted to make the community aware of a new tenure-track faculty
position at Brown University in structural biology. Details about the
position are provided below.
*Structural Biology Faculty Position, Assistant Professor*
The Department of Molecular Biology, Cell Biology and Biochemistry at
Brown University announces the opening of a tenure-track faculty
position with a start date of July 1, 2013. Qualifications include a
Ph.D. and/or M.D. degree with relevant postdoctoral research training
and a record of excellence in research. The successful applicant will be
an experimentalist in the area of X-ray crystallography who will be
expected to pursue an independent, externally-funded research program.
The applicant should demonstrate a commitment to graduate and
undergraduate education, and will have the opportunity to
participate in pre-doctoral training programs within the Division of
Biology and Medicine and the campus at large. Research space will be
provided in a new, state-of-the-art facility with access to X-ray
equipment, crystallization robotics, NMR spectrometers and
biophysical analysis instrumentation, such as ITC, DSC, CD and mass
spectrometry (LTQ Orbitrap), among others. Recent upgrades to the Brown
University structural biology infrastructure include new X-ray
crystallography instrumentation (Rigaku FR-E+ SuperBright
with VariMax-HF ArcSec optics, a Saturn 944 CCD detector and ACTOR
robotic crystal mounting system), a BIOSAXS-1000 small angle X-ray
scattering instrument, and the addition of an 850 MHz NMR spectrometer.
Candidates should submit a curriculum vitae with a complete
bibliography, a 3-5 page description of research plans, a 1-page
teaching statement and up to 3 representative publications. These
materials should be submitted electronically to
http://www.interfolio.com/apply/14669. Three confidential reference
letters should be submitted separately to the same website (instructions
for requesting confidential letters of recommendation are also provided
on the same website). Review of applications will commence on *November
1, 2012*, and will continue until the position is filled.
Brown University is an equal opportunity (EEO/AA) employer and is
committed to increasing the diversity of its faculty. It welcomes
nominations and applications from minorities, women, and individuals
with varied experiences, perspectives and backgrounds, which would
enrich the university's research, teaching and service missions.
Thank you,
Gerwald
