[Spm] Postdoctoral Position: Single Molecule Force Spectroscopy

[Phillip Messersmith]

A postdoctoral position in single molecule biophysics is available in the 
Messersmith group at Northwestern University. The overall goals of the 
research are to elucidate the molecular details of mussel adhesive protein 
adhesion (for example, see PNAS 2006, 103, 12999). We seek self-motivated 
individuals interested in a stimulating and interdisciplinary research 
environment where fundamental biophysics experiments inform the development 
of biologically inspired materials. For more information on the group 
please visit our website 
<http://biomaterials.bme.northwestern.edu/index.asp>http://biomaterials.bme.northwestern.edu/index.asp. 


Experience in designing, conducting and interpreting single molecule 
pulling experiments is required. Candidates with experience in AFM single 
molecule pulling experiments, cantilever tip modification, and peptide or 
polymer chemistry are especially encouraged to apply. The position is 
available immediately and will remain open until filled.

To apply, please send a CV, statement of research accomplishments and 
future interests, and the names of three referees to philm at northwestern.edu.
