[Chlamydomonas] Postdoc & EM Technician Positions

[Daniela Nicastro]

Dear All,

four positions are available immediately at Brandeis University:

 

1. A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Nicastro to
study cilia and flagella in the model organism Chlamydomonas or Tetrahymena,
using molecular genetic approaches including RNAi technology, biochemistry
and high-resolution imaging. Further details about this opportunity are
available at:

<www.bio.brandeis.edu/nicastrolab/Flagella_Postdoc2008.pdf>

 

2. A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Nicastro to
study the 3D structure and function of molecular motors using cryo-electron
tomography (Nicastro et al. 2006 Science 313:944). Further details about
this opportunity are available at:

<www.bio.brandeis.edu/nicastrolab/Motor_Postdoc2008.pdf>

 

3. We also have openings for two candidates (one Postdoc and one EM

Technician) with experience in high-pressure freezing, freeze-substitution
and ultramicrotomy. The successful candidates will join the newly
implemented cellular visualization facility for correlative light and
electron microscopy to work closely with cell and neurobiologists. 

Further details about this opportunity are available at:
