Boston College Introduction: Boston College is a leading national
Jesuit, Catholic university, enrolling 14,700 students, 9,000 full-time

Position Details Department: 053321 - Chemistry Department
Position: 00006561 - Assistant Director, NMR Center
Grade or Band: 3RD
Job Description: The Assistant Director of the NMR Center will be
responsible for providing research support, user training, and facility
maintenance to the Chemistry Department (and other integrated science
departments in the University). The primary focus of the individual in
this position will be to provide support in the areas of macromolecular
structure determination (including acquisition and processing of 3D and
higher-dimension data sets), and metabolomics (including principal
component analyses). These areas, along with general NMR operations,
will also be an important focus of the individual in this position.
This individual will also be expected to provide general systems,
network, and instrument maintenance/service/repair in support to the
director of the NMR Center and backup coverage when the director of the
NMR Center is absent.
Requirements: The position requires a recently conferred Ph.D. in
Chemistry, Biochemistry, or Physics awarded for research focused
primarily on the structure determination of macromolecular systems using
NMR as the primary analytical technique. Postdoctoral training is
desired but not essential. Experience with structural data reduction
and visualization techniques and software is absolutely essential to
this position, as is a detailed understanding of NMR instrumentation and
support laboratory operations. Strong interpersonal, organizational,
communication, and training skills are also essential. Experience or
familiarity with metabolomics is also desirable. Closing Statement
Boston College is an affirmative action, equal opportunity employer.
