*Postdoctoral Position in Structural Biology at Case Western Reserve
University*



An NIH-funded postdoctoral position is available for a highly motivated
membrane-protein structural biologist in the laboratory of Sudha Chakrapani
at the Department of Physiology and Biophysics, Case Western Reserve
University. The project involves determination of protein structure and the
basis for functional modulation of clinically important ion channels and
transporters (Reference: Basak et. al. *eLife* (2017). We are using
multidisciplinary state-of-the-art approaches to determine structure (X-ray
crystallography and cryo-EM), protein dynamics (EPR and Fluorescence
spectroscopy), and function (patching clamping in proteoliposomes and HEK
cells, two electrode voltage-clamp). We are seeking candidates with a
strong background in molecular biology, membrane protein
expression/purification, and X-ray crystallography. Interested candidates
should email Sudha Chakrapani (sxc...@case.edu) with a cover letter describing
the candidate's research interests, CV, and contact details of three
referees.
