A postdoctoral position is available in the Campbell laboratory at the University of North Carolina to pursue structural, biophysical and biochemical research efforts on proteins that regulate cellular growth control through modulation of cell signaling and cell adhesion processes. The systems under investigation are of high biomedical relevance, especially in relation to cancer cell biology. Interested candidates will have access to state-of-the-art NMR facilities [Varian Inova 500, 600 MHz, 700 MHz (UNC-CH), 800 MHz (Duke); the 500, 700 and 800 MHz instruments are equipped with cryogenic probes]. Extensive offline SGI workstations and software are available for NMR data processing, analysis and structure calculations.

Minimum qualifications include a Ph.D., D.V.M., M.D. or equivalent in physics, chemistry, molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology or a related discipline with an emphasis on NMR spectroscopy as it relates to the determination of protein structure. Candidates should have a strong background in modern NMR spectroscopic methods for bio-macromolecular structural analyses.
