Subject: Post-Doctoral position available at Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada Project Description: A postdoctoral position is available immediately for structure-function studies of cytoskeletal motor proteins in human and agricultural fungal pathogens in the Department of Biochemistry at Queen's University. Projects investigating the structural basis of secondary metabolite biosynthesis and biofilm generation in these organisms are also available. For these studies, combined approaches in molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics and X-ray crystallography are employed. The laboratory is fully equipped with all the required infrastructure and in-house X-ray crystallography instrumentation. We also have full access to several synchrotron beamlines in APS, CHESS, and NSLS. Qualifications: The position requires a Ph.D. degree with experience in protein purification, crystallization and successful structure determination.
