招聘简介：美国冷泉港实验室分子神经科学博士后招聘

英文原文：

The laboratory of Hiro Furukawa at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) is seeking a postdoctoral fellow with dynamic interests in solving questions in molecular neuroscience using diverse methods. Our group currently conducts structural biology (cryo-EM/crystallography) on cell surface receptors and ion channels to gain mechanistic insights and develops reagents against those membrane proteins (e.g. small compounds and antibodies) to regulate neuronal functions for research and therapy. We use diverse techniques to analyze functions including patch-clamp/bilayer electrophysiology, fluorescence imaging, calorimetry, and phage/yeast display. We have access to the state-of-the-art equipment including Titan-KRIOS 300 Kev electron microscope/K2-GIF detector (soon to be upgraded to K3-GIF) at CSHL, crystallography tools such as Mosquito LCP and Dragon fly, frequent access to synchrotron light sources including NSLS-II and excellent facility for phage/yeast display, proteomics, and light microscopy. CSHL offers a unique scientific environment to interact with scientists within the institute as well as from outside at the prestigious CSHL Meetings & Courses program (including courses on the X-ray Methods in Structural Biology, Cryo-EM, and Ion channels). The Furukawa lab has an excellent track record for educating/promoting postdocs to assistant professors in academia and equivalent positions in industry. A qualified candidate should hold or expect to soon hold (within ~1 yr) Ph.D. in the area of molecular neuroscience/electrophysiology (patch-clamp, imaging, etc), crystallography, cryo-EM/ET, or basic biochemistry/molecular biology. For example, individuals with backgrounds in neuroscience, cell biology (e.g. high resolution imaging/biochemistry), synthetic biology, or computational biology (e.g. molecular dynamics, systems biology) who want to apply their knowledge to our questions/ideas as they learn our techniques are highly encouraged to apply. Please visit our website (https://www.cshl.edu/research/faculty-staff/hiro-furukawa/) to read and learn about the Furukawa lab. Please send a CV with a brief research statement as well as 2-3 contacts for references to Hiro Furukawa at furukawa@cshl.edu.
