    About the JobSummary of Position:

    An NIH-funded postdoctoral position is available in the Veglia Laboratory for the structural analysis of kinases using NMR spectroscopy and other biophysical techniques.

    The goals include determining the structures, dynamics, and functional interactions of kinases and their regulatory subunits.

    Sample Preparation and NMR Experiments (65%):
    You will express, purify, and assess the activity of protein kinases using biochemical assays.

    This involves executing experimental procedures related to the characterization of kinases and their interactions with regulatory subunits through NMR spectroscopy and other biophysical techniques.


    Training and Supervision (20%):
    You will train technicians and students in NMR methodologies and supervise data acquisition.

    Participation in Seminars (5%): You will present findings at monthly lab meetings, give at least one formal seminar per year (either locally or at relevant national meetings), and regularly attend local seminars and journal clubs.

    Grant Proposal Planning (5%): You will assist in planning and drafting extramural research proposals, working closely with your direct supervisor on portions relevant to newly developed methodologies.

    Scientific Manuscript Drafting (5%): You will serve as the primary author of manuscripts that communicate experimental results
