We have applied some changes to ARIA and are monitoring stability, but you can continue to work as normal. We appreciate your understanding.
A NIH-funded post-doctoral research position is available in the laboratory of Seok-Yong Lee at the Duke University School of Medicine to study the structural and mechanistic basis of membrane transport processes. The lab’s current research focuses on three membrane transport processes: Ca2+ permeation in somatosensation, drug/metabolite transport, and polysaccharide transport in microbial cell wall synthesis. The Lee Lab applies a broad multidisciplinary approach to examine these processes using structural (cryo-EM), biochemical, biophysical, chemical biology, and computational methods. The successful applicant will work on advancing the mechanistic understanding of somatosensation into broader biological contexts.
Recent publications from the lab are
Wright, Fedor, et al., Nature, 2022
Ren et al., Nat. Struct. & Mol. Biol. 2022
Kwon et al., Nat. Communs. 2022
Kwon et al., Nat. Struc. & Mol. Biol. 2021
This is a great opportunity for talented biochemists/structural biologists interested in linking structural biology to sensory neuroscience who would enjoy being embedded in a scientifically diverse and highly collaborative group. A strong background in either cryo-EM or membrane protein biochemistry is a plus, but not required.
Interested candidates should send their application material, including CV/resume, list of publications, a statement of research interests as well as the contact information of three references, to seok-yong.lee@duke.edu
