The Grishin (http://prodata.swmed.edu/) and Chook (http://www4.utsouthwestern.edu/chooklab/) Labs at UT Southwestern
seek a recent PhD graduate for a postdoctoral fellow position to study structural
determinants of nuclear export signals and predict them in protein sequences. The project will
involve both experimental and computational approaches. The experimental aspect
requires experience in protein crystallography, biochemical and biophysical
techniques. The computational aspect will involve sequence bioinformatics and structure
modeling techniques. Synergy between computation and experiment is key to this
project.
Applicants should
hold a recent PhD degree and have strong laboratory skills in all aspects of protein
crystallography. Computational biology experience is helpful. Good
communication and organizational skills are critical.
