POST-DOCTORAL POSITION

 

Three post-doctoral positions are available to join a multi-disciplinary research group investigating the regulation of biological motors activity from the cellular to the molecular level. The group is formed by the laboratories of Gary Gerfen, Ao Ma, David Sharp and Hernando Sosa in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine.  For these positions the ideal candidates would have experience in the general areas of cell biology, structural biology, molecular simulation and statistical mechanics. Expertise with one or more of the following techniques will be required: protein expression and purification, cell imaging, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), electron microscopy and molecular dynamics simulations.  

 

For this project we have state of the art facilities present in each of the participating laboratories and at the core facilities of the Albert College of Medicine. These capabilities include EPR (PELDOR, high frequency, HYSCORE), several modalities of fluorescence microscopy (con-focal, epi, tirf, single-molecule polarization etc), cryo-electron microscopy and state-of-the-art Linux clusters for molecular simulations. All four laboratories in the group are located in the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City, which offers excellent opportunities for stimulating and highly inter-disciplinary scientific interactions within the group, between theory/simulation and experiments, with the rest of the college and with many other scientific institutions in the New York area.  Interested candidates please send an email letter, CV and reference names to either: Gary Gerfen (gary.gerfen at einstein.yu.edu), Ao Ma (ao.ma at einstein.yu.edu), David Sharp (david.sharp at einstein.yu.edu), Hernando Sosa (hernando.sosa at einstein.yu.edu).
