Post-doctoral Research Position in Laser Desorption Time-of-Flight Mass
Spectrometry
A position is available immediately for development of a new mass
spectrometric approach to biopolymer analysis based on rapid evaporative
cooling . Potential applications include high-speed gene sequencing and
analysis of protein DNA interactions. The successful applicant will have
experience with molecular beams, mass spectrometry and/or lasers.
Experience in custom instrument design and construction is particularly
desirable. This position is an excellent opportunity for an
instrument-oriented physical chemist to branch out into problems of
biological interest. This is also an opportunity to learn wet-biochemical
methodology (e.g. recombinant DNA techniques). Initial appointment will be
for one year with a strong liklihood of extension for a second year.
Interested applicants should send one CV with three references to:
Professors Alec Wodtke and Norbert Reich
Department of Chemistry UCSB
Santa Barbara CA 93106.
