    We have an opening for postdoctoral fellows. Please share. Thanks !

    Postdoctoral Fellow - Structural and chemical biology of protein lipidation


    About the position
    The Banerjee lab is (Anirban Banerjee Lab: Section on Structural and Chemical Biology) in the intramural program of the NIH. Our research focuses on understanding the chemical and cellular mechanisms of integral membrane enzymes and transition metal transporters. We use a combination of cryoEM, crystallography, in vitro biochemistry and biophysics in combination with cell biological experiments. We interact with numerous labs in the intramural program in supergroup meeting settings. Thus, trainees get a wide exposure to diverse areas in biomedical science, besides gaining a deep expertise in their own specific project area.

    Please send an email to Anirban at anirban.banerjee@nih.gov with a CV, names of three referees, a description of your research interests and why is our lab of interest to you. Please write about specific projects that are of interest to you.

    Qualifications
    Proficiency in molecularHaving experience in one of more of the following is expected -
    Molecular biology techniques such as PCR based mutagenesis, design and creation of constructs using basic molecular biology techniques.
    Protein purification
    Biochemical and biophysical assays
    Chemical biology
    Any structural biology technique
    Experience with mammalian cell culture, membrane proteins or cryoEM will be added advantage.
    Cell biology

    The NIH is dedicated to building a community in its training and employment programs and encourages the application and nomination of qualified women, minorities, and individuals with disabilities.
