There are also openings for PhD students and protein chemists interested in working on Alzheimer's disease. This interdisciplinary Laboratory of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics is concerned with the development and application of theoretical techniques for the design of molecular medicine. Analytical chemistry techniques as well as molecular biological experimental work are guided by computational structural analysis. The summer program at the Picower Institute provides hands-on laboratory experience and stresses the pursuit of new therapeutic approaches. Individuals with experience in HPLC are especially encouraged to apply.
Some positions are available immediately.
Please contact Elaine Jones at the above address. Protein chemists sought for staff positions in multidisciplinary team constructing and evaluating a molecular model of amyloid fibril formation in Alzheimer's disease. The project also includes the development of assays for evaluating inhibitors of fibril formation. As we continue our significant growth, we seek innovative and dynamic individuals interested not only in cutting-edge research, but also in having their research move to clinical application.
