The Schwartz laboratory at MIT, Department of Biology (Cambridge MA,
USA) seeks to recruit an outstanding postdoctoral scientist in
structural biology with a research focus directed towards the
structure of macromolecular assemblies. The major theme within the
group is structure and function of the nuclear pore complex, vesicle
coats, and further evolutionary related assemblages (Brohawn et al.,
Science 2008).

This position requires a Ph.D. in biochemistry or a related field,
with a strong background in protein crystallography Applicant should
have experience in guiding structure determination projects from start
to finish, experience in eukaryotic protein expression would be
advantageous. The candidate should be a highly motivated individual
who enjoys working as part of a collaborative, fun, and
multidisciplinary team. Strong leadership, communication and teaching
skills are decided assets.

The laboratory is well-funded and equipped with state-of-the-art
crystallographic instrumentation: MicroMax 007 generator, 2 Oxford
Cryostream systems, 2 image plate detectors, as well as brand-new
robotic crystallization systems: Art Robbins Phoenix liquid handler, 2
RockImager 1000, and Formulator gradient mixer. MIT is part of NE-CAT
with regular access to synchrotron beamtime at APS. Access to modern
biophysical instrumentation (analytical ultracentrifugation, dynamic
light scattering, isothermal calorimetry, CD spectrometer) is provided.

The position is immediately available and funded for 2+ years. It may
be extended up to five years dependent on performance.

To apply please send your CV, a statement of research interests, and
names (including email address) of at least two referees by email to
Dr. Thomas Schwartz (tus@mit.edu). Applications will be accepted until
the position is filled.
