A full-time position for a postdoctoral researcher is available in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Chicago to pursue structural studies on a novel ion channel using X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy, in combination with various biochemical, electrophysiological and computational techniques.
The ideal candidate will be an independent and highly motivated researcher with a strong background in membrane protein biochemistry and advanced techniques in protein crystallography.
Funding for the position is secured for at least 4 years, with opportunities for extension and, depending on performance, promotion to a "Staff Scientist" level position, allowing for considerable autonomy to develop independent research projects.
