| > > | Entry-level Technician Position in the Cryo-Electron Microscopy Facility at the New York Structural Biology CenterThe Electron Microscopy group at the New York Structural Biology Center is seeking to hire an entry-level technician to add to its rapidly expanding group. We are looking for a bright and enthusiastic individual to help out with various tasks to keep the lab running. Most important are a good attitude, ability to learn, and willingness to do what needs to be done. Must be able to work in a multi-tasking environment where priorities may change often and be able to work well with others. Previous electron microscope experience is not required but is a plus. Requirements include a science degree (Associate degree or above) and basic IT skills (HTML knowledge or coding a plus). This is a full-time position available to start immediately once hired. Salary is commensurate with experience. The position is currently open and applications will be reviewed continuously until the position is filled. Qualified applicants should send a curriculum vitae and names of three references to Bill Rice. | |||||||

| < < | The New York Structural Biology Center (NYSBC) seeks an experienced electron microscopist to join the staff of its Cryo-Electron Microscope Facility (http://cryoem.nysbc.org). The NYSBC is a shared center that supports state-of-the-art research in cryo-EM, NMR, and X-ray. Cryo-EM facilities include four transmission electron microscopes and a dual-beam scanning electron microscope, which support projects involving electron tomography, single particle analysis and electron crystallography of both stained and frozen-hydrated samples. Projects focus on 3D reconstruction of biological assemblies ranging from the atomic structure of membrane proteins, to the subunit organization in macromolecular complexes and the cellular anatomy of developing organisms. Implementation of new technologies is an ongoing interest at NYSBC and, with the dual-beam microscope, NYSBC plans to expand the scale of 3D reconstructions to encompass the characterization of entire cells and their distributions within their native tissue. To assist in these developments, NYSBC seeks a individual with postdoctoral experience in biological electron microscopy and image reconstruction. This individual will carry out experiments in support of collaborative projects with affiliated investigators and will also have opportunities to pursue independent research projects. The individual should be capable of multitasking, should enjoy working with other people, should have a good working knowledge of electron microscopes and a strong research background. Good communication skills are essential. Qualified applicants should send a curriculum vitae and names of three references to David Stokes (stokes@nysbc.org). Salary is commensurate with experience. The position is currently open and applications will be reviewed continuously until the position is filled. | |||||||

Postdoctoral Position for a Membrane Protein Electron MicroscopistA postdoctoral position for a highly motivated electron microscopist is available immediately in the laboratory of David Stokes at the New York Structural Biology Center (http://cryoem.nysbc.org) in New York City. The successful applicant will work for the Transcontinental Electron Microscopy Initiative for Membrane Protein Structure (TEMIMPS; http://temimps.nysbc.org). TEMIMPS is funded by the NIH Protein Structure Initiative for development and implementation of high-throughput and high-resolution approaches to structure determination of membrane proteins using electron cryo-microscopy and 2D membrane crystals. TEMIMPS is composed of six research groups with combined expertise in membrane protein production, membrane crystallization, electron microscopy, image processing, and structure determination. Groups at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine, New York University and NYSBC work closely together. The group at Mt. Sinai focuses on production of purified membrane protein targets, whereas the group at NYSBC uses a high-throughput pipeline to screen crystallization conditions. The open position at NYSBC will involve crystallization of membrane proteins 3D reconstruction using methods of electron crystallography. The NYSBC is well equipped for all aspects of this project and hosts superlative facilities for electron cryo-microscopy. Candidates must hold a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Biophysics, Structural Biology or a related field. Strong research experience in membrane protein biochemistry is highly desirable. In addition, the candidate must have strong interpersonal, organizational and communication skills in order to facilitate intimate collaboration with other research groups. Salary will be commensurate with experience. Interested candidates should send a cover letter, curriculum vitae and contact information for three professional referees to Dr. David Stokes at stokes@nysbc.org. | ||||||||
