Dear ccp4bb enthusiasts,
Please see below an ad for a postdoc position in my group.
Happy New Year,
Alexandra
The Deaconescu Lab at Brown University has one opening for a postdoc
position. The laboratory's interest is the interplay between DNA repair
and other cellular processes including transcription and chromatin
remodeling, and is focused on elucidating the function and
mechanochemistry of DNA-based motors using a combination of biochemical,
biophysical and structural techniques. (e.g. X-ray crystallography,
small-angle X-ray scattering, transmission electron microscopy). For
examples of work, please see Tung et al. /Cell/ (in press, published
online), Kutter et al. /JMB/ (2016), Szyk et al, /Cell/ (2014),
Deaconescu et al., /PNAS/ (2012), Szyk et al., /NSMB/ (2012) and
Deaconescu et al., /TIBS/ (2013).
A successful candidate should have the following qualifications: a Ph.D.
in the field of Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Biochemistry or related
field; an established track-record of publications in peer-reviewed
journals; solid experience in the biochemistry of complex DNA-binding
proteins (such as chromatin remodeling factors, transcription factors
and DNA repair proteins), their purification from E.coli/yeast
expression systems as well as their functional characterization.Prior
knowledge of crystallography and/or single-particle electron microscopy
would be a plus. Must be highly motivated and work independently as well
as in a team. Excellent spoken and written English are required. New
Ph.D. graduates are encouraged to apply.
*Interested candidates should send a CV, one page research experience
summary and contact information for three references to

negotiable.Please write Postdoctoral Candidate in the e-mail subject
header.Brown University, an Ivy League school, is located less than one
