- We are seeking a Cryo-EM (Senior) Scientist to independently execute cryo-EM data processing and interpretation across multiple programs. This role is responsible for delivering high-quality structural insights end-to-end. The ideal candidate will have deep hands-on experience with cryo-EM data processing platforms, a strong practical understanding of single-particle cryo-EM, comfort operating within established internal software environments, and the ability to communicate results clearly in collaborative and client-facing settings.
- Independently process single-particle cryo-EM datasets from raw movies through validated reconstructions
- Build, refine and help interpret atomic models
- Apply, adapt, and troubleshoot established processing workflows
- Learn and efficiently use internally developed software tools and processing pipelines as a primary user
- Interpret results in the context of sample quality, data collection conditions, and experimental limitations; and communicate implications clearly
- Present results to internal stakeholders and external clients, fielding technical questions and defending conclusions in real time
- Collaborate with experimental, computational, and software teams to align on collective needs and directions across programs
Требования
- Demonstrated ability to independently process cryo-EM data using established tools (RELION, cryoSPARC, cisTEM, etc.)
- Demonstrated experience building and refining atomic models in Phenix, Coot, ChimeraX/Isolde, etc.
- Demonstrated ability to draw relevant technical and biological insights from processed datasets, and use those insights to suggest next steps
- Deep practical understanding of single-particle cryo-EM, including common failure modes and tradeoffs related to sample quality (e.g., heterogeneity, preferred orientation, ice quality, particle behavior) and how these factors affect processing strategies and results
- Experience using insights from cryo-EM data at multiple resolutions: complex formation, protein-protein interaction mapping, high-resolution, etc.
- Demonstrated experience presenting technical or scientific work and the ability to clearly articulate results, assumptions, and technical tradeoffs in discussions with internal and external stakeholders
- Strong background in biochemistry, biophysics, and/or cell biology; and an ability to communicate and collaborate with protein scientists to facilitate project success.
- Comfort onboarding into and operating within existing software tools and workflows without owning their development
- Experience working with diverse projects and samples, and operating in a dynamic environment
- Creativity and excitement to advance the frontiers of capability, throughput, and speed in structural biology.
Будет плюсом
- Experience with scripting (python, shell) in support of cryo-EM data analysis
- Strong working knowledge of UNIX/Linux environments and large-scale data handling
- Cryo-EM grid preparation and vitrification
- Cryo-EM microscope operation or data acquisition
- Deep understanding of complementary structure determination methods such as X-ray crystallography or NMR spectroscopy
- Experience with cryo-ET, milling, and tomographic reconstruction methods
