[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral Positions in Ion Channel Structure at UCSF

2011-01-13 Thread Dan Minor
POSTDOCTORAL POSITIONS, MINOR LAB
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN FRANCISCO (UCSF)
Structure, Function, and Regulation of Ion Channels

Postdoctoral positions in Ion Channel Structural Biology are available 
immediately for highly motivated individuals with a strong interest in 
integrated approaches to problems in ion channel structure, function, and 
regulation in the lab of Prof. Dan Minor at the University of California, San 
Francisco (UCSF).  The Minor Lab merges structural, biochemical, genetic, and 
electrophysiological methods to dissect the mechanism of complex protein 
machines involved in electrical signaling. More information is available at the 
lab website: http://www.cvri.ucsf.edu/~dminor/

The positions offer ideal opportunities for experienced crystallographers 
interested in continuing structural studies, but who would like to complement 
his or her expertise with other, diverse tools for understanding membrane 
protein function and mechanism.  Available projects also include investigation 
of full-length membrane protein structures. The fellows will benefit from both 
the outstanding environment in the lab and the highly collaborative UCSF 
community. The lab has extensive crystallographic resources, including (as part 
of the UCSF crystallography group) two R-axis IV systems and regular access to 
synchrotron beamline 8.3.1 at the nearby Advanced Light Source (ALS) in 
Berkeley.

Candidates should have (or expect) an Ph.D. or M.D. and should have experience 
in protein purification, crystallization, and structure determination.

Interested individuals should send a current CV to Prof. Daniel Minor at
