[RASMB] Research Fellow Position in Physical Biochemistry and Biosensing

[Peter Schuck]

Dear Colleagues,
I would appreciate if you could pass along the following information about 
an opening for a Research Fellow to interested individuals.
Thanks,
Peter


Research Fellow Position in Physical Biochemistry and Biosensing


The Protein Biophysics Section of the Laboratory of Bioengineering and 
Physical Sciences, National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and 
Bioengineering (NIBIB) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), part of 
the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), is recruiting a 
Research Fellow in the field of biophysics of proteins at interfaces.

The purpose of a Research Fellowship is to provide junior-level scientists 
with doctoral degrees experience in biomedical research while supporting 
the NIH's intramural research program. To be eligible for the Research 
Fellowship, a candidate must have demonstrated outstanding scholastic 
achievement and the ability to conduct successfully, with minimal 
supervision, a pre-established program in laboratory research.

The research activity primarily involves the development of biosensor 
technology and the collaborative application of biosensors for the study of 
protein interactions.  Applicants should be highly motivated and have a 
Ph.D., at least 3-5 years of post-doctoral work experience, and strong 
biophysical expertise, particularly in the fields of supported bilayers, 
protein-surface interactions, protein biochemistry, and mathematical 
modeling.  The successful candidate will join a team of investigators using 
different biophysical techniques including AUC, ITC, DLS, FFF, SPR, and 
fluorescence spectroscopy for the study of macromolecular assembly processes.

The position will be located on the NIH main campus in Bethesda, Maryland, 
and is subject to the 5-year/8-year limitation at the NIH. The position is 
available to foreign nationals, but thorough proficiency in the English 
language in reading and writing is required. Entry level salaries are in 
the range of USD 42,897 - 79,127 for Research Fellows.  Applicants should 
submit a cover letter, summary of their past work, curriculum vitae 
including bibliography, and names and addresses of three references to: Dr. 
Peter Schuck, Chief of the Protein Biophysics Section, LBPS, NIBIB 
(pschuck at helix.nih.gov).


Proud to be Equal Opportunity Employers

THE NIH IS DEDICATED TO BUILDING A DIVERSE COMMUNITY IN ITS TRAINING AND 
EMPLOYMENT PROGRAMS
