As part of a major structural biology initiative, the Departments of
Chemistry and Biochemistry & Molecular Biology at the University of Georgia
invite applications for a joint tenure-track faculty position at the ASSISTANT
PROFESSOR level starting July 1, 1998. Preference will be given to candidates
with experience and research interests in the area of solution structure and
dynamics of biological macromolecules by NMR. Resources are available to
attract candidates who are poised to contribute immediately and significantly
to structural biology applications of NMR spectroscopy. These resources
include acquisition of a 600 MHz NMR spectrometer as part of our structural
biology initiative, and an 800 MHz spectrometer which is supported by the
Georgia Research Alliance as a regional facility. Applicants should possess a
Ph.D. in chemistry, biochemistry or closely related field, the potential to
establish a vigorous independent research program, and the ability to
contribute to teaching at both undergraduate and graduate levels. Postdoctoral
experience is desirable. Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, a
statement of teaching and research plans and arrange to have three letters of
reference sent to: Professors Donald M. Kurtz, Jr. and James H. Prestegard,
Co-chairs, NMR Search Committee, Department of Chemistry, University of
Georgia, Athens, Georgia 30602-2556. Deadline for receipt of applications is
November 1, 1997. The University of Georgia is an AA/EEO institution. We
encourage applications from minorities and women.
