Mount Sinai - Senior Postdoc / Junior Faculty Position in Computational Biophysics
(Posted 15 May 2016)
6.05.07 SENIOR POSTDOC/JUNIOR FACULTY POSITION IN COMPUTATIONAL BIOPHYSICS, NEW YORK, NEW YORK, USA A senior postdoc/junior faculty position in computational biophysics is available in the Filizola Lab (http://www.filizolalab.org; PI: Prof. Marta Filizola) at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, in New York City, USA. We are seeking highly qualified candidates with an outstanding record of research using a variety of computational structural biology tools, ranging from molecular modeling, molecular dynamics simulations, free energy calculations, and enhanced sampling algorithms to investigate molecular mechanisms underlying membrane protein function. The ideal candidate would have a Ph.D. degree in Physics, Chemistry, Biophysics, Theoretical/Computational Chemistry, or related discipline, and a strong background in computer simulations. Proven expertise in computational approaches for drug design such as ligand-based and structure-based drug design, virtual screening, docking, pharmacophore analysis, hit2lead and lead optimization are pluses. Strong communication skills, and an ability to both collaborate with peers and train students effectively are required. The position is available immediately. Qualified applicants should send a CV and at least 2 reference names by email to Dr. Marta Filizola at marta.filizola#%#mssm.edu. Applications will be considered until the position is filled.
