Dear all,
We have an opportunity for a highly motivated crystallography
scientist to join the protein structure group at Genentech. The
successful candidate will participate actively in our structure-based
drug discovery programs and engage in the structural elucidation of
proteins and protein complexes of significant scientific and/or
therapeutic interest. Job responsibilities include construct design,
data collection in-house and at synchrotrons, and structure solution
of proteins and protein/ligand complexes. As an integral member of
project teams you will interact with medicinal and computational
chemists to aid the design of new small molecule compounds, and
furthermore will collaborate as a structural biologist with
scientists within the Protein Engineering Department and throughout
the Research organization.
Requirements:
PhD in a relevant discipline and at least 3 years of postdoctoral
training, preferably with some experience in small molecule drug
discovery. The successful candidate will show evidence of successful,
independent contributions in science, as demonstrated by a strong
publication/patent record. Extensive knowledge in all aspects of
crystallography including data collection and processing, structure
solution (MR. MIR, MAD etc), model building etc. is required.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, as well as the
ability to work in large, multidisciplinary project teams are
essential. Knowledge in high-throughput protein purification or
modeling techniques would be useful.
If you are interested in joining our team at Genentech, please submit
a CV and cover letter referring to position 07-1000019487 at
www.gene.com/careers.
