Gene Tech Lab Director ad

[Susan Golden]

DIRECTOR - GENE TECHNOLOGIES LABORATORY. 
Applications are sought from individuals with capabilities and 
interests in supervising and developing modern techniques for 
analysis of genes and their functions. Management of a state-of-the-
art DNA sequencing and synthesis laboratory that provides services and
training to the campus community is the primary responsibility.  
Laboratory personnel presently include three full-time and two part-
time technicians. Major equipment includes an ABI 373A sequencer, a 
Biomek 2000 robotic workstation, several oligonucleotide 
synthesizers, and a Fujix BAS 2000 phosphorimaging system. Since
opportunities exist for the expansion of services for localization
of macromolecules and video imaging, familiarity with SUN and Silicon 
Graphics workstations, imaging instrumentation, light microscopy and 
computer programs and interfaces is highly desirable. Candidates will 
have a Ph.D. and demonstrated practical experience in molecular 
biological techniques. The position carries a competitive 12-month 
salary plus benefits. Informal enquiries by e-mail (tim at bio.tamu.edu) 
or fax (409-862-4098) are encouraged; applicants should send a vita 
and names of three references to: Dr. Timothy C. Hall, IDMB, Texas A&M 
University, College Station, TX 77843-3155.

Please note that the above position is not a tenure-accruing 
position.  Although opportunities exist for collaboration with other 
faculty and for teaching activities related to the GTL and 
imaging functions, the position is primarily intended to be a service-
oriented role.
