Available Positions

Employ state-of-the-art single-molecule fluorescence methods to study the dynamics of large protein machines. Decipher the role of microsecond-time-scale motions on the function of these machines.  Experience in single-molecule spectroscopy is a plus, but candidates with experience in any branch of spectroscopy or biophysics are welcome.

Proteins jiggle and wiggle all the time as they perform various tasks within living cells. We are attempting to understand how internal motions within protein machines are related to their various functions. We use sophisticated single-molecule methods developed in the group. Our work is highly interdisciplinary, going all the way from protein chemistry (expression and labeling) through single-molecule experiments to computational analysis. If you decide to join us, you will not only get acquainted with topics at the forefront of biophysics, but will also work within an energetic and vibrant group of scientists.
