POST-DOCTORAL POSITIONS IN
PROTEOMICS/FUNCTIONAL GENOMICS
Post-doctoral positions available immediately to develop new
technologies for ultra-high throughput analysis of complex systems 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.
Electrophoresis: Solid knowledge of the principles of electrophoresis
and extensive practical experience in 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 strong
publication records 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 AVS Express a plus. UNIX and network experience also useful.
