To any driven and motivated early career scientists out there, A Postdoctoral Associate position is available based at the Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute (HWI) in Buffalo New York and affiliated with the University at Buffalo. We are a welcoming environment looking for a highly motivated structural biologist with an interest in metalloproteins and methods development to join a project with the Snell<https://hwi.buffalo.edu/scientist-directory/snell/> and Bowman<https://hwi.buffalo.edu/scientist-directory/sbowman/> laboratories. The project involves the structural study of biological systems that are impacted by free radical activity and metalloproteins, where the modeled metal and/or coordination state are of interest for further investigation. The work will involve a collaboration with well-known scientists in Stanford and Oxford and will use X-ray crystallography, UV-spectroscopy, and micro-PIXE techniques. The eventual aim involves structural studies using X-ray free-electron sources for radiation chemistry-free data. It is possible that neutron studies would also take place. The position involves working directly with the Crystallization Center<https://hwi.buffalo.edu/high-throughput-crystallization-center/> at the Institute and will have access to a Glacios cryo-EM with Falcon 4 detector. The Institute runs the IMCA beamline at the Advanced Photon Source. It is anticipated that multiple structural techniques will be employed, and while the candidate should have structural biology expertise, they are not expected to be proficient in all structural biology techniques. Molecular biology expertise is required to produce target proteins and complexes. Many techniques will be employed and significant learning opportunities are available.
This position is based at HWI but offered through the University at Buffalo. Informal enquiries only can be made to Doctor's Snell and Bowman (email details on their webpages). Application instructions and details are available at the University of Buffalo job posting site<https://www.ubjobs.buffalo.edu/postings/26915>. Publications related to the project are available at the Snell lab webpage at https://hwi.buffalo.edu/scientist-directory/snell/ with pertinent publications at https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0239702 and https://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/jacs.9b09186. Dr. Bowman's webpage is at https://hwi.buffalo.edu/scientist-directory/sbowman/. Dr Bowman is director of the High-throughput Crystallization Screening laboratory at https://getacrystal.com, available for rapid and productive crystallization screening of biological macromolecules.
