Dear All,

 

Applications are invited for a joint postdoctoral
scientist position in the laboratories of Dr. Isabelle Deschenes and Dr.
Krishna Chinthalapudi at the Ohio State University. The research project
focuses on understanding the role of ion channels in health and disease. We
combine state-of-the-art structural biology approaches including cryo-EM, X-ray
crystallography, and electrophysiology with biochemical, biophysical, and cell
biological methods to investigate how ion channels function in health and
disease.

 

Our laboratories are equipped with
state-of-the-art instrumentation for the proposed studies and have generous
access to a Titan Krios G3i Cryo-TEM equipped with a K3 direct electron
detector, imaging phase plates, and an image spherical aberration corrector. In
addition, our labs have access to Glacios with a falcon III detector and Ceta-D
camera for MicroED analysis at the world-class Center for Electron Microscopy
and Analysis (CEMAS) at the Ohio State University.

 

Applicants must have a Ph.D. in structural
biology, biochemistry, or a related field. Expertise in molecular biology
techniques, membrane protein expression and purification, electrophysiology,
and/or high-resolution imaging are desirable.

 

To be considered for this position, please email your curriculum vitae, a
short cover letter with research experience and interests, and contact
information for three references to Krishna Chinthalapudi (krishna.chinthalapudi@osumc.edu) and Isabelle Deschenes (isabelle.deschenes@osumc.edu).

 

Thank you,

Krishna
