The Page Laboratory at the University of Connecticut Health Center has an immediate opening for up to two post-doctoral candidates to study pro- and eukaryotic signaling enzymes, with a focus on the function of phosphatases that form large signaling complexes, and also drug/inhibitor development. All studies use X-ray crystallography and/or cryo-EM/NMR. Applicants with a strong background in biochemical techniques, and especially eukaryotic protein expression and protein crystallization, are encouraged to apply.
The Page laboratory is housed in a newly renovated ~250,000 sq. ft. research laboratory in Farmington, CT. The laboratories are open-lab-space facilities and allow close interaction with the adjunct structural biology and molecular/cell biology groups at UConn Health. The Page laboratory is equipped with all necessary infrastructure to produce (E. coli, Sf9, mammalian), purify and analyze protein and protein complexes (ITC, SPR etc.) and crystallization robotics for crystal production. Farmington, CT, is located on the New England between Boston (90 min.) and New York City (90 min.). Starting date, salary and project details are negotiable.
