POSTDOCTORAL POSITION - BIOMOLECULAR NMR

A newly established laboratory in Sydney, Australia seeks a postdoctoral 
associate to pursue studies on biomolecular recognition, especially the
structure, dynamics and interactions of nucleic acids.  The position is 
initially available for three years, renewed annually, with a suggested
salary in the range $A 37,345-40,087 p.a.

Candidates should have a solid background in hands-on NMR, preferably with 
experience in multidimensional biomolecular experiments, although 
appropriately-qualified chemists with an interest in moving into biomolecular 
work will be considered.  Strong computational skills are a bonus.  The 
associate will work with other members of a small group with active projects 
in C-13 relaxation analysis of nucleic acid motions, discovery of new RNA 
structures/activities using SELEX methods and analysis of protein/nucleic 
acid-ligand interactions.  Further projects are under development.     

Spectrometer and computational facilities are very good.  The lab has major 
use of a Bruker DMX-600 equipped with x,y,z gradients, and secondary use of
a Bruker DMX-500 equipped with a z gradient.  The two Biochemistry NMR labs
share a small workstation cluster which includes an SGI R8000 Indigo2,
an Indigo2 Extreme, an Indy and two older Personal Irises.  These systems
currently run a range of Biosym, Molecular Simulations Inc. and academic 
software.
