[RASMB] postdoctoral position opening

[Peter Schuck]

Dear Colleagues,

we are recruiting for a postdoctoral position in the Protein Biophysics 
Resource of the Laboratory of Bioengineering and Physical Science, 
National Institute for Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, National 
Institutes of Health.  I would appreciate if you could announce this 
opening in your department.

Our goal is to develop biophysical approaches for the characterization 
of complex systems of interacting biological macromolecules using 
multiple techniques.  The candidate will have the opportunity to acquire 
and/or to apply skills in sedimentation velocity and equilibrium 
analytical ultracentrifugation, optical biosensing, isothermal titration 
and differential scanning calorimetry, time-resolved and steady-state 
fluorescence spectroscopy, static and dynamic light scattering, field 
flow fractionation, and mass spectrometry, using principles of 
bio-thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, and hydrodynamics.  The candidate 
will be expected to develop methodological research projects but also 
have the opportunity to pursue collaborative biological applications 
with other laboratories at the National Institutes of Health.  A solid 
background in protein biochemistry is a plus, as well as experience in 
any techniques of biophysical chemistry.  Candidates with expertise in 
microfluidics or supported lipid bilayers are also encouraged to apply.

The position is located in Bethesda, Maryland, U.S.A.  Applicants should 
send a cover letter stating their research interests, CV, bibliography, 
and the contact information for three references to 
pschuck at helix.nih.gov.  Further inquiries are welcome and should be 
directed to the same address.

Thank you, regards,

Peter Schuck
