Subject: Open postdoctoral position at University of California Davis
The Shabek lab is looking for a postdoctoral fellow with a strong background in structural biology to join immediately to our research group at the University of California, Davis (shabek-lab.ucdavis.edu/).
We use structure- function approaches to study unique signaling pathways and their regulation by the Ubiquitin Proteasome System. We have new funded projects by NSF and DOE.
Qualifications:
• Must be a recent Ph.D. in Biochemistry and/or Plant Biology and/or Structural Biology
• Experience in molecular biology, protein purification techniques (experience with baculovirus expression is preferred but not required), and protein-protein/molecule interactions.
• Experience in structural biology (X-ray crystallography and/or Cryo-EM).
• Strong communications skills and ability to train junior scientists
Compensation and benefits for postdocs in UC Davis are the highest in the country. Davis is a beautiful Californian town located near Sacramento, and close to San Francisco, and several National Parks. The Shabek
lab has access to ALS beamlines in Berkeley National Labs and SSRL in Stanford, as well as CryoEM facilities (BioEM in Davis or Brookhaven National labs).
To apply:
Email directly to Dr. Nitzan Shabek (nshabek@ucdavis.edu) with the subject line:
