Dear colleagues, An NIH-funded postdoctoral position is available in the Munson lab in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Pharmacology at the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester, MA.
The Munson lab is elucidating the structure and function of regulators of intracellular membrane trafficking, including the exocyst complex, SNARE proteins and Sec1/Munc18 proteins. We are a multidisciplinary lab, using biochemical, structural, cell biological, microscopy and genetic studies in yeast, mammals and a variety of other eukaryotes with the goal of obtaining fundamental mechanistic understanding of the detailed regulation of exocytosis and endocytosis, and how dysfunction of this regulation impacts cellular biology and human disease. Applicants must have (or expect to obtain shortly) a Ph.D. in Structural Biology, Biochemistry, Biophysics, or a related field. Previous hands-on experience with cryo-EM, protein biochemistry, purification, and analysis of protein-protein interactions is essential. In addition, experience with yeast genetics, protein crystallography, mass spectrometry, tissue culture, and/or fluorescence microscopy is preferred, but not required. The lab is highly collaborative, and strongly values and supports colleagues with diverse backgrounds and experiences. We are part of a dynamic structural biology and biochemistry community with outstanding resources, core facilities and training.
