POST-DOCTORAL POSITIONS IN
PROTEOMICS/FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS
Post-doctoral positions available immediately to develop new technologies for
ultra-high throughput analysis of complex systems (cells) at the molecular
level. Highly motivated individuals with solid expertise in 2-D gel
electrophoresis, mass spectrometry, OR bioinformatics are encouraged to apply.
Fellows will participate in an intensive team effort to develop new technologies
for mass mapping of proteins for identification and characterization of
post-translational modifications. Research experience in yeast or mammalian
cell biology is a plus.
Electrophoresis: Solid knowledge of the principles of electrophoresis and
extensive practical experience with 2-D gel electrophoresis are required.
Experience with thin-layer gel electrophoresis and capillary electrophoresis
desired but not essential. Experience with yeast or mammalian systems also
desired.
Mass spectrometry: Research experience with MALDI or ESMS required as is
expertise in protein chemistry. Applicants should have published work
addressing application of mass spectrometry to protein chemistry or molecular
biology issues.
Bioinformatics: Research experience involving bioinformatics required with
publications in this field and a solid biochemistry background. Solid
programming skills required as well as familiarity with customized database
searches and handling very large files. Experience with Oracle and/or
visualization software (AVS Express or PV-Wave) a plus. UNIX and network
experience also useful.
