A postdoctoral position combining structural/biophysical techniques and
protein engineering to discover the molecular mechanisms that control
microtubule assembly is available immediately in Luke Rice’s lab in the
Department of Biochemistry at UT Southwestern Medical Center. The lab is
currently focused on enabling structural and mechanistic studies of
alpha/beta-tubulin by harnessing the established (but largely untapped)
potential of S. cerevisiae as a vehicle for recombinant expression of
wild-type or mutant alpha/beta-tubulin.
The ideal candidate will show strong motivation and will have recently
earned a Ph.D. with experience in structural biology and/or molecular
biology and protein expression. Applicants should email a CV along with
contact information for three references and a brief description of
their previous research.
