The details are below. I would appreciate your help in filling this position, so please pass this message along to any suitable candidates. Thank you for your time. Regards, Justin Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of Calgary I am recruiting a talented, motivated postdoc to join my lab at the University of Calgary. Candidates should have a strong computational background and will work at the interface between computational modeling, biophysics, and structural biology. Research in this position will focus on the design of molecular interactions, specifically the development of protein-based sensors for small molecules, including drugs, toxins, and metabolites. We will use a combination of computational tools, including Rosetta, molecular dynamics simulations, and free energy calculations to design binding proteins and to understand the driving forces behind binding. The most promising designs will then be validated and characterized experimentally. For this position, I am looking for someone with a strong background in computational chemistry, biophysics, structural biology, or a related field. Experience with free energy calculations, umbrella sampling, Rosetta, or related tools is a strong asset. Depending on the interests of the applicant, there could also be an opportunity to gain wet lab experience, but this is not required. The University of Calgary is one of Canada’s top research institutions. Calgary routinely ranks as one of the most livable cities in the world and is only an hour from the Canadian Rockies—one of the world’s most spectacular outdoor playgrounds. The stipend is $50,000/year for two years, plus benefits. The start date is negotiable, but must be no later than spring 2016. To apply, please send a CV and a brief (4–5 sentences maximum) statement of interest to justin.maccallum(a)ucalgary.ca<mailto:justin.maccallum@ucalgary.ca>. I will begin reviewing applications immediately. -- Justin MacCallum - Assistant Professor Canada Research Chair in Biomolecular Structure and Design Department of Chemistry University of Calgary justin.maccallum(a)ucalgary.ca<mailto:justin.maccallum@ucalgary.ca> http://maccallumlab.org<http://maccallumlab.org/>

For the past several years, the efforts of ITS have included seminars, workshops, public lectures, and visiting faculty. I have had the pleasure of being involved in this from the start, as a visitor and adviser to the administration. > > The time has now come to search systematically for permanent faculty. > > The President of the Graduate Center is committed to growing ITS into a vibrant community of 8-10 permanent faculty exploring theoretical problems across a range of traditional disciplines. It is expected that there will be communal support for postdoctoral fellows and visitors, and the activities of ITS will continue to be supplemented by the involvement of faculty from the CUNY colleges. There are many steps involved making this work, but we need to start by recruiting an initial cluster of faculty. > > We have decided that our first search will be for theorists interested in biological problems, whose methods and intellectual style are grounded in theoretical physics and applied mathematics. We take these definitions broadly, and emphasize that part of the job for the first group of faculty will be to help in the recruiting of others, who will share their intellectual style but certainly have interests in very different problems. While many institutions can offer to embed theorists into a large (and perhaps even overwhelming) community of experimental biologists, few can offer the opportunity to have theorizing about biological systems at the core of a larger theoretical effort. > > The Graduate Center is not a place with a great tradition in the natural sciences. On the other hand, it is more nearly a tabula rasa, and offers an almost unique chance to build a community from the ground up, including space for novel educational programs. We have shown, I think, that we can attract world class visitors, and with a critical mass of faculty this should be even easier. And, of course, being in New York is just plain fun. > > Just so you know, although I have no intention of leaving Princeton, I do plan to continue spending a fraction of my time at The Graduate Center. I have had a wonderful time really working at ITS, where discussions at the blackboard seem to come very easily, and I am committed to helping with the transition to a permanent community. > > We would appreciate your bringing this opportunity to the attention of appropriate candidates.
