A postdoctoral position is immediately available to join our ongoing
study of structure-based drug discovery. The particular project
will involve structural and functional investigations of proteins in
the Wnt signaling pathways by using NMR and other biophysical and
biochemical methods. The postdoctoral fellow is also expected to
participate in our current effort to discover small-molecule inhibitors
that can block Wnt signaling at different levels. Candidates with
a background in Structural Biology, Biomolecular NMR, Protein
Chemistry, Biochemistry, Physical Chemistry and Chemical Physics are
encouraged to apply.
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is a premier center dedicated to
advancing the health of children with catastrophic diseases through
biomedical research. The Protein NMR Resource at St. Jude is currently
equipped with three NMR spectrometers, a Bruker Avanced 800 MHz
spectrometer with cryoprobe, a Bruker Avanced 600 MHz spectrometer with
cryoprobe, and a Varian INOVA 600 MHz spectrometer. In addition
to a highly competitive salary, St. Jude offers postdoctoral research
associates an outstanding benefits package, including yearly
professional travel funds. For consideration, please contact: Dr.
