A postdoctoral fellowship opportunity is
available in the Cell Biology and Biophysics Unit headed by Dr. Antonina
Roll-Mecak to work on the tubulin code using in vitro reconstitution and TIRF
microscopy to capture the dynamic behavior of cytoskeletal complexes coupled
with cryo-EM, single particle, and tomography to obtain structural information.
For more information please visit: https://research.ninds.nih.gov/roll-mecak-lab.
We are looking for Ph.D. graduates
with a strong record of accomplishments and expertise in biochemistry and cell
biology. Expertise with cryo-EM preferred, but not needed. We are happy to
teach you!  Incoming fellows are also
encouraged to bring their own ideas that they could develop into research
programs to help them launch independent PI positions. The NIH is committed to
the continued education and career development of trainees through numerous
courses and workshops offered on campus. The NIH
has an outstanding cell and structural biology community, and the lab has
regular access to state-of-the-art resources such as a Chameleon, Krios with K3
camera, Glacios, TIRF and lattice sheet microscopes as well as cryo-FIB SEM. The
position is fully funded for up to five years. Please send your CV, a one-page
research experience summary and contact information of three references to Antonina@nih.gov  Please write “Tubulin code cryo-EM” in the
subject header.
