Postdoctoral Fellow
Postdoctoral Position in Structural Biology at UC DAVIS Full-time
The Shabek lab is looking for a motivated postdoctoral fellow with a structural biology background to join our growing research group at the University of California, Davis (shabek-lab.ucdavis.edu/).
We use structure-driven approaches to study unique signaling pathways in plants. We are particularly interested in deciphering the mechanisms of specific signaling receptors and their regulation by the Ubiquitin Proteasome System.
The lab has access to beamlines at the Advanced Light Source (Berkley Labs, https://als.lbl.gov/), as well as our in-house EM facility (https://bioem.ucdavis.edu/)
Qualifications:
- Ph.D. in Structural Biology and/or relevant field
- Extensive experience in structural biology (X-ray crystallography and/or Cryo-EM)
- Excellent experience with molecular biology, and protein purification systems (experience with baculovirus expression system is preferred but not required)
- Ability and desire to train junior scientists
To apply:
Email directly to Dr. Nitzan Shabek (nshabek@ucdavis.edu) with the subject line: Postdoc in Structural Biology Application.
Please include a cover letter that highlights your research experience & interests, CV, and contact information of 2-3 references.
