Indiana University
Biomolecular NMR Spectroscopist
Indiana University has significantly expanded its NMR capabilities with the installation of 600 and 800 MHz Varian spectrometers in the new METACyt Biomolecular NMR Laboratory in Simon Hall. We now seek to appoint a Biomolecular NMR Spectroscopist at the Assistant Scientist (research-track) level, effective April 1, 2010. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in Chemistry, Biochemistry, Structural Biology or a related field; two years postdoctoral experience or equivalent is desired. The successful candidate will have documented experience with the application and optimization of modern biological NMR spectroscopy to structural studies of proteins. Familiarity with partially aligned systems and nucleic acids is desirable. Experience with the operation and maintenance of high field NMR spectrometers (600 and 800 MHz) and cryogenic probe systems is required, and knowledge of hardware and Unix-based software maintenance is essential. Familiarity with Varian systems and methods of NMR data analysis through structure calculation and validation stages are also desirable but not necessary.
Applicants should submit a brief statement of interest, a CV, and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent to: Professor James P. Reilly, Chair of Search Committee, Department of Chemistry, Indiana University, 800 E. Kirkwood Ave., Bloomington, IN 47405. FAX: (812) 856-5050, email: chemchair@indiana.edu. Review of applications will begin upon receipt and will continue until the position is filled. Indiana University is an Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action employer.
