We seek a postdoctoral scientist with laboratory experience in protein expression and functional characterization. The candidate should also have experience in the use of amino acid sequence analyses addressing questions of protein function and evolution. Our NASA-funded project examines the evolution of protein thermostability in the bacterial lineage of Thermotgales. The project also explores the relationship between horizontal acquisition of binding protein-encoding genes and the changes in the binding properties of those proteins. The position will commence no later than Sept. 1, 2008.
Applicants must have a Ph.D. at the time of employment. The University of Connecticut, rated first among public universities in New England, is located in northeastern Connecticut with easy access to Boston and New York City.
