As part of major University initiatives in the life sciences and biophysics, the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry seeks to further strengthen its program in Structural Biology. We shall appoint a bio-molecular x-ray crystallographer to a tenured or tenure-track position. The successful candidate will add to a program in biomolecular crystallography that was recently initiated with the hire of one individual at the Assistant Professor level. We seek outstanding scientists whose research interests complement existing strengths in the department and across the University and who are committed to developing outstanding programs in research and teaching. One of four departments within the College of Chemical and Life Sciences, Chemistry and Biochemistry participates in University centers and initiatives including the Center for Biomolecular Structure and Organization, the Center for Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, the Institute for Physical Science and Technology, as well as a university-wide initiative in biophysics. The University of Maryland, College Park is the flagship campus of the University of Maryland System and is ideally situated in close proximity to Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Maryland’s I-270 Technology Corridor.
