The RCSB Protein Data Bank (http://www.pdb.org), is looking for a 
Scientific Lead to assist in the advancement of the data dissemination 
strategies and delivery of important data viewing tools.  The incumbent 
will function as the Scientific Lead for the RCSB Protein Data Bank 
(PDB) Site at the University of California in San Diego (UCSD).   The 
incumbent will work with the PDB Director, Co-Director and scientific 
staff at both Rutgers and San Diego to define the scientific objectives 
for the RCSB Web Site, provide functional requirements and participate 
in the development of tools to enhance the analysis tools offered by the 
PDB to the scientific community.  The incumbent will have deep domain 
knowledge in structural biology, computational biology or related 
discipline as well as experience in programming scientific 
applications.  He/She will be skilled at working with scientists from

of the PDB content to enhance their own research efforts.   A specific 
long term goal is to create a series of domain specific interfaces to 
PDB data that permit both simple and complex queries to be addressed by 
a variety of audiences ranging from K12 to advanced researchers from the 
life and medical sciences.
