postdoctoral research position for single molecule and single cell technologies
seeking a ph.d to support research projects in nanotechnology related to single molecule and single cell spectroscopy. this work utilizes nanometer-diameter pores through nanometer-thick solid-state membranes or quartz pipettes with nanometer-diameter orifices that are immersed in an electrolytic solution to detect single molecules for applications in protein sequencing or identifying protein structure. the successful applicant must have completed a ph.d., preferably in molecular and cell biology, electrical engineering, physics, biophysics, bio-engineering or a closely related discipline, with a proven capacity for world-class research that is reflected in a publication record.
considerable skill is required in implementing experiments to probe the interactions between biomolecules and abiotic nanostructures and/or nanoelectronics. experience in a subset of the following disciplines is mandatory: aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy; micro- and nanofluidics; atomic force/scanning probe microscopy; free-space laser optics and preferably optical tweezing; semiconductor device fabrication; high frequency, low-noise electrical measurements; molecular and cell biology; interfacing computers with instrumentation using labview; and programming in matlab, python, c++, and/or igor. for more information, candidates should refer to the web site: http://www3.nd.edu/~gtimp/.
interested applicants should send a detailed cv, along with a list of publications, and arrange to have at least three letters of recommendation sent via email directly to prof. gregory timp (gtimp@nd.edu). in the cover letter, please delineate specifically how your skills can be applied to the work in this lab.
