| Lipid Enzyme Chemistry: A postdoctoral position is available to study brain lipid metabolism and fatty acid turnover. The successful candidate will investigate how small molecules inhibit and/or modify the critical brain enzymes governing the anabolic and catabolic metabolism of brain lipids. | |
| A background in enzyme kinetics, biochemistry, and/or molecular biology is essential. Expertise in enzyme isolation and purification from whole tissue, prokaryotic and eukaryotic protein expression systems, enzyme activity assays, and site-directed mutagenesis is helpful. Applicants should have obtained a Ph.D. or M.D. degree within the past 5 years. Send CV, cover letter, and contact information for three letters of reference to: | |
