Living Cells <http://www.cplc.illinois.edu/>" (CPLC), a National Science Foundation Physics Frontier Center at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Fellowships are available starting May 2018, and will normally last a minimum of two years. > > Research in the Center falls in four themes: > (1) Single-molecule biophysics at the molecular-cellular interface; > (2) Maximizing information content of single cell experiments; > (3) Collective dynamics: from cell-cell interaction to multicellular organisms; > (4) Increasing biological realism in theory and computation. > > Fellows will use state-of-the-art experimental and theoretical biophysical tools to accomplish these goals: optical tweezers, single-molecule and super-resolution fluorescence microscopy, fabrication of synthetic nanostructures, live cell imaging, chemical biology, experimental evolution and microbial ecology, statistical cancer genomics, high-throughput assay development, classical and quantum mechanical molecular simulations, stochastic modeling, whole cell simulations, as well as the standard methods of molecular and cellular biology and genetics. Research will involve both the development and improvement of experimental and computational techniques and the application of these techniques to particular biological processes such as replication, transcription, translation, cell transport, cellular mechanics signaling, motility, microbial communities and evolutionary dynamics. As projects are collaborative endeavors between several labs, the Fellows will have the opportunity to be jointly advised by two or more faculty members of the Center. > > Fellows will also be expected to participate in education and outreach activities of the Center. Candidates for this postdoctoral position must have a Ph.D. in the physical sciences, life science, or related disciplines, and must be highly qualified in one of the experimental or theoretical areas. Excellent oral- and written-communication skills are required for this position. The University of Illinois is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer, and welcomes applications from minority and women candidates. > > Applications for this position (and other positions available in the Physics Department) may be submitted electronically via LINK HERE <https://my.physics.illinois.edu/submit/go.asp?id=1210>, and should arrive no later than February 1, 2018. Applications received after the deadline may not be considered. These applications should include, in PDF format: > (1) A cover letter > (2) A curriculum vitae > (3) A research statement not exceeding three pages, summarizing your past and ongoing research, > (4) A publications list, including papers and preprints with their URLs. For any papers or preprints that are not readily available via the internet, applicants may wish to upload electronic copies via the "supporting document" channel. > > Please post and circulate the attached announcement or if interested, apply accordingly. > > For more information about CPLC, please visit http://cplc.illinois.edu <http://cplc.illinois.edu/>. > > Thank you. > > Yann Chemla and Zaida Luthey-Schulten > Co-directors, Center for the Physics of Living Cells > <>director(a)cplc.illinois.edu <mailto:director@cplc.illinois.edu> > http://cplc.illinois.edu <http://cplc.illinois.edu/> > University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign > 1110 West Green Street, MC 704 > Urbana, IL 61801-3080, USA
