More information about the lab below.

The  Deaconesculaboratory’s interests lie primarily in stress responses, with particular

emphasis on responses to DNA damage. We utilize a combination of biochemical,

biophysical and structural techniques. (e.g. X-ray crystallography, electron microscopy).

Examples of recent work are: Schwartz et al, Protein Science (2021), Brugger et

al, Nature Communications (2020), Dorich et al, Genes & Development (2019), Vemu et

al. Science (2018), Le TT et al. Cell (2018), Szyk et al, Cell (2014). Positions are funded

by two new multi-year grants from the NIH.

A successful postdoctoral or staff scientist candidate should have an established track-record of

publications in peer-reviewed journals; solid experience with  protein

biochemistry (their purification and assay development). We have a variety of projects

available at different stages of development, including some that involve drug

design. Prior knowledge of crystallography and/or single-particle electron microscopy is

highly desirable. Knowledge of bacterial genetics also an asset. Must be highly motivated

and work well independently as well as in a team. Excellent spoken and written English

are required. 

Salary and starting date are negotiable. Brown University, an Ivy League school ranked

as 5th best in the US by the Wall Street Journal, is located in Providence, Rhode Island

less than one hour away by train from Boston. Rhode Island provides plenty of

opportunities for outdoor recreation with beautiful beaches and sailing and we offer a

friendly and supportive lab environment.

Please feel free to distribute to anyone might be interested.

Bests,
