A postdoctoral position is available immediately to perform systems-level
analyses of receptor tyrosine kinase signal transduction as it relates
to cancer and diabetes. Potential projects will involve the use of
protein microarray, robotic chemical synthesis, cell culture, and mass
spectrometric approaches to analyzing mammalian signal transduction as
it relates to human disease. Project will likely be highly
interdisciplinary and involve close interaction with members of the Ben
May Department for Cancer Research and the Institute for Genomics and
Systems Biology. Research will take place within the new and
state-of-the-art facilities at the Gordon Center for Integrative
Sciences. Compensation will be in line with NIH salary guidelines.
Interested applicants should send a C.V. including list of publications and the names and contact information for three references to the following address:
Richard Jones, Ph.D.

Two post-doctoral fellow/research associate positions are immediately available to study molecular basis of mammalian cell signaling and bacterial pathogenesis (for research in Tang's lab, visit http://ben-may.bsd.uchicago.edu/bmi2/faculty/tang.htm). Success applicant will participate in ongoing projects for protein structure determination, biochemical and biophysical analyses of human insulin degrading enzyme and bacterial toxins as well as the discovery of therapeutic leads for several human diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, and anthrax. Applicants should have the strong interest in biochemistry, chemistry, or biophysics and preferably have the experience in X-ray crystallography, enzymology, or molecular biology. Salary levels for post-doctoral positions will follow NIH guidelines.
