The laboratory of Nami Tajima at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine seeks a highly motivated and creative individual with expertise in structural biology and molecular neuroscience/electrophysiology to elucidate the molecular mechanism of ligand-gated ion channel signaling complexes.
Our research interests are focused on 1. understanding the regulatory mechanisms of ion channels involved in basic brain functions and neurological diseases 2. dissecting the signaling networks/ protein-protein interactions in the context of synaptic signaling 3. structure-based drug discovery These issues will be addressed using a multidisciplinary approach that includes Cryo-EM, X-ray crystallography, electrophysiology, molecular and cellular biology, and biochemistry/biophysics. Case Western Reserve University is equipped with a state-of-art structural biology facility, including screening microscopes, and a Titan Krios with a K3 camera. The successful candidate for the postdoctoral researcher must have a recent Ph.D. obtained within three years (or being in the process of completing one) in a relevant field with a demonstrated track record of productive research. Expertise in one or more of the following areas; biochemistry, biophysics, protein expression and purification, cryo-EM, X-ray crystallography, electrophysiology, neuroscience, cell biology, mass spectrometry, and invitro and in vivo fluorescence imaging. Interested applicants should submit (1) a cover letter describing research interests and career goals; (2) a CV; and (3) contact information for 2-3 references by email to Nami Tajima at nxt...@case.edu.
