A research technician position is available at the Skirball Institute of
Biomolecular Medicine, New York University Medical Center, New York
City. The candidate will be working on the biochemistry of integral
membrane proteins involved in ion or nutrient transport. The aim of the
research is to determine the protein structures at high resolution using
electron and X-ray crystallography and to understand the mechanisms of
transport across the membrane.
The person will do research in protein chemistry and spend 10- 20 % time
to carry out daily lab supervision and maintenance. Successful applicant
should have a very solid background in protein biochemistry or
chemistry. Experience in Ni-affinity, ion-exchange, and size-exclusion
chromatography, SDS-PAGE, FPLC, HPLC, Western blot, and protein
functional assays would be desirable. Prior experience in molecular
biology would be an advantage. The person should also be willing to
learn new techniques and will have chances to work independently.
The Skirball Institute will offer a salary commensurable with experience
plus an excellent benefits package, including
medical/dental/prescription drug plans, four weeks of paid vacation and
free NYU tuition. The position is available immediately. Please send a
c.v., and names of two professional references to,
