We have an opening for a Postdoctoral Associate interested in studying
light-driven DNA repair in proteins. You will gain valuable expertise in
state of the art optical techniques, including Stark spectroscopy, ultrafast
laser spectroscopy, and single molecule microscopy. In addition, you will
have the opportunity to learn about recombinant DNA and molecular biology
techniques, as well as protein expression, purification, and
characterization. We also use quantum chemical computing extensively to
support our experimental work.
Your background can be in physical chemistry, biochemistry, physics, or
related fields, but a fearless approach to instrumentation, including
computers, is an asset.
The Chemistry Department is well equipped for research. Temple University is
part of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's University system with about
34,000 students. Philadelphia is one of the most attractive cities in the
country in terms of quality of life and cultural and historic richness. The
Philadelphia region hosts other major research universities and has the
greatest concentration of pharmaceutical and chemical companies in the
world, offering rich opportunities for interaction with outstanding academic
and industrial scientists.
It is hoped to fill the position no later than October 2009 and an earlier
start date s possible. The initial appointment will be for one year, with
the possibility of renewal one or more years based on mutual consent and
continued funding. Interested individuals should send a cover letter with a
