Postdoctoral Position
Protein Crystallography & Bioinorganic Chemistry
A POSTDOCTORAL POSITION is available in PROTEIN
CRYSTALLOGRAPHY and BIOINORGANIC CHEMISTRY in a
collaborative project between the laboratories of Christin A.
Frederick (Harvard Medical School - Dana-Farber Cancer
Institute, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular
Pharmacology) and Stephen J. Lippard (Massachusetts Institute
of Technology, Department of Chemistry). Applicants should
have a Ph.D. in chemistry, biochemistry, or biophysics and
research experience in macromolecular crystallography. The
successful candidate will study the structure and aspects of the
mechanism of the proteins comprising the soluble, bacterial
methane monooxygenase system by using protein
crystallography. Two Mar Research imaging plate systems, one
