Please bring this position to the attention of anyone in your lab who might
be interested.

Thanks,

Kendall



The Scripps Research Institute
Palm Beach Florida

Post-doctoral Position:
Nuclear Receptor Signaling and Structure-Based Drug Design

The Scripps Research Institute has established a major science center in
Palm Beach County, Florida, focusing on biomedical research, technology
development and drug design. Funding for facilities and initial staffing
(some $800 million) is supported by the State of Florida via economic
development funds as well as by the local county government.

A post-doctoral fellowship position is available to study nuclear receptor
signaling and structure based drug design in the laboratory of Assistant
Professor Kendall Nettles.

Candidates should have a PhD degree and experience in protein
crystallography and/or a good background in molecular biology and protein
biochemistry. The laboratory is equipped with robots for high throughput
cloning, protein purification, solution mixing and crystallization, and
automated crystal visualization. The institute is purchasing a home source,
and has dedicated time at SSRL and APS.

We use a variety of structural and molecular approaches to understand the
connections between small molecule ligand, receptor structure and function,
and endocrine physiology. Ongoing projects include investigation of the
structural basis for tissue and pathway specific signaling through the
estrogen and glucocorticoid receptors, signal transduction across the RXR
heterodimer interface, and structure-based drug design. The fellow will
interact closely with the Drug Discovery, Advanced Technology, and Genomics
groups at Scripps Florida to take advantage of other automated technologies,
including robots for small molecule screening and transfection.

Please send curriculum vitae, a brief statement describing research
experience and scientific interests and the names of at least two references
to:
