I am posting the following position on behalf of Dr. Long.
The Advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy (AMRIS) Facility at
the U.S. National High Magnetic Field Laboratory and University of Florida
seeks a scientist specializing in biomolecular solution NMR spectroscopy for
the permanent research staff position of AMRIS Facility Manager of solution-state
NMR instrumentation for biomedical applications. Minimum qualifications include
a PhD degree or equivalent in Chemistry, Medicinal Chemistry, Pharmacology,
Biophysics, Biochemistry, or Structural Biology with demonstrated expertise in
techniques of high-field solution NMR spectroscopy and their applications to
studies of natural products, metabolomics, or biological macromolecules.
Experience in instrument calibration, pulse sequence execution, data acquisition,
and data analysis is needed. Experience with NMR-based approaches frequently
used in biomedical research, e.g., natural products elucidation, NMR peak
assignment methodologies, quantitation of metabolites, measurement of ligand
binding affinities, and NMR-based analysis of protein dynamics, is encouraged.
The AMRIS Facility houses state-of-the-art 500-800 MHz NMR systems, 7-17.6 T
preclinical MRI/S scanners, research-dedicated 3T clinical MRI/S scanners, and
polarizers to enable both basic and translational biomedical research. Full
details on the Facility can be found at amris.mbi.ufl.edu. The successful
candidate will be primarily responsible for high-field solution NMR applications
on vertical bore 600 and 800 MHz NMR systems in the AMRIS Facility. The successful
candidate will be expected to collaborate with AMRIS Facility staff to maintain
optimal instrument performance and standard protocols for solution NMR spectroscopy
to provide support for researchers at the University of Florida as well as external
users through the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) users program.
The position includes the responsibility of recruiting new users to the facility
through various outreach avenues both on campus and at national meetings. This
position offers unique opportunities to contribute to the development of cutting-edge
research ongoing in the NMR spectroscopy program in the AMRIS Facility and the NHMFL
and to conduct independent and collaborative research projects. The position will
be based in Gainesville, but will involve a close relationship with the NMR
Spectroscopy Program at the NHMFL in Tallahassee, so occasional travel to that
site will be expected. Ongoing research in the Facility includes the development
and application of NMR spectroscopy to biological, biomedical, chemical, and material
science research projects and the development of novel spectroscopy and polarization
enhancement methods. Candidates with an interest in the application of
cutting-edge NMR methods to solving biomedical and biological problems are highly
encouraged to apply. The successful candidate must exhibit strong abilities in customer
service and time management skills.
Specific job requirements:
* Responsible for coordinating, scheduling, and ensuring proper utilization
of research facilities.
* Recommend and implement operating policies and procedures in the AMRIS Facility.
* Keep abreast of current developments and ensure compliance with relevant
laws and regulations.
* Recruit new users to the AMRIS Facility through various outreach avenues,
both on campus and at national meetings
* Plan and participate in research projects.
* Help direct and modify research plans.
* Develop methods and techniques for, and evaluate the results of, experiments
or studies.
* Prepare and review manuscripts for publication and presentation at scientific
meetings.
* May serve as a liaison between the AMRIS Facility, outside agencies, and
the general public.
Applications will be evaluated beginning August 26. A full job description
and application can be found at jobs.ufl.edu, job no. 532584
(explore.jobs.ufl.edu/en-us/job/532584/core-rsch-facility-manager).
For additional information on the position, please contact Dr. Joanna R. Long,
jrlong_at_ufl.edu , or Dr. Matt Merritt, matthewmerritt_at_ufl.edu. The University of
Florida is an Equal Opportunity/Access/Affirmative Action Employer.
