The Keck Fellows Program for Imaging at UCSF

SCHOOL Medicine
DEPARTMENT Biochemistry & Biophysics
POSITION SERIES Fellow
RANK NA
POSITION DESCRIPTION Nominations are being solicited for the appointment of a second Keck Imaging Fellow at the new Mission Bay campus of the University of California, San Francisco. The goal is to bring talented independent young scientists whose research is at the forefront of cryo electron microscopy and/or image analysis into our diverse and interactive research community.  Keck Fellows pursue their research without the obligations of faculty membership or the constraints of a conventional postdoctoral fellowship.  Thus, the Fellows Program provides an alternative or a supplement to traditional postdoctoral study following the MD or Ph.D. degree, and an opportunity to establish a creative and successful research program prior to obtaining a faculty position. Keck Fellows receive salary, $40K startup and $50K/year in funding for research support. They may seek extramural funds to support research groups of 2-4 members.   Fellowships are nonrenewable, with a maximum term of four years.
POSITION REQUIREMENTS Candidates must submit a letter from a mentor or other advisor who can comment in depth on the candidate's accomplishments and potential.  In addition, the application should contain the candidate's curriculum vitae, a brief research plan, 1 or 2 reprints and at last two additional reference letters. Applications should be sent to the attention of:
