One Postdoc position in Protein X-ray Crystallography is available in Dr. Yongcheng Song's laboratory at Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas (one of the top medical schools/universities in USA, https://www.bcm.edu/about-us). The successful candidate is expected to have strong expertise (>5 years experience including PhD studies) and a track record of publications in the field. One critical requirement is he/she can work independently to perform protein crystallization with small molecule ligands/inhibitors, X-ray diffraction, data collection and structural refinement. Basic molecular biology/biochemistry techniques (cloning, construction of protein expression plasmids, western blot, etc) are required. The main duties are to obtain X-ray crystal structures of biologically important proteins with novel small molecule inhibitors. This is an important aspect in the drug discovery programs in the PI’s lab. Find the research interests, project descriptions and publications in
