A postdoctoral position in the area of computational biochemistry
in the Feig group at Michigan State University is available 
immediately to develop and apply new methodology in the area of
protein structure prediction and refinement. 

Suitable candidates will have a strong background in biophysical 
chemistry, bioinformatics, and/or structural biology and possess 
previous experience in one or more of the following specific areas:

* protein folding
* molecular dynamics simulations of biological macromolecules
* conformational sampling methods
* empirical and physics-based scoring functions
* macromolecular force field development
* coarse-graining and multiscale methodology 

Furthermore, this project requires strong programming skills
and familiarity with UNIX environments to be able to independently 
implement new methodology in new and existing software packages.

The position will be initially for one year with the possibility for
renewal upon mutual agreement.

Send applications by email to feig!A!msu.edu including a CV, an indication
of the earliest possible start date, the names of at least two references,
and PDFs of two publications that demonstrate scholarship in the specific 
areas mentioned above. Applications will be considered as soon as they
arrive until the position is filled.
