Technician Position in Structural and Chemical
Biology of Neurodegenerative diseases.

Position Description: Applicants are invited to apply for a technician
position in Dr. Hoang’s laboratory in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular
Biology at Indiana University School of Medicine. Our research focuses on understanding
the molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration. We use a broad range of
experimental methods, including molecular dynamic simulation and in
silico docking, molecular cloning, protein biochemistry, enzymology,
X-ray crystallography, cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), NMR, yeast genetics,
mammalian cell models, and C. elgans. Examples of some of the methods
that we employ can be gleaned from our prior publications: Hoang QQ et al. Nature. 425: 977-980 (2003);
Liao J. et al. PNAS. 111(11):4055-60 (2014), Oh M et al. PNAS. 111(30):11007-12
(2014), Wang W. et al. PNAS. 113(34):9587-92 (2016), Wu CX et al. JBC. 294(15):5907-5913(2019),
and Wu CX et al. bioRxiv, 676627

Requirements: BS or MS in biophysics, biochemistry, chemistry,
bioengineering, biology, or a related discipline. No experience is required.
However, experience in protein expression and purification is a plus.
