Postdoctoral Fellow: Molecular Analysis of Photosynthetic Complexes
|
Stillwater
|
|
| Applications are invited for a DOE-supported postdoctoral position to study the assembly and function of photosynthetic complexes. The work combines state-of-the-art molecular genetic, biochemical, and biophysical approaches to clarify basic photosynthetic mechanisms using a cyanobacterial model organism that is amenable to genetic engineering to test basic photosynthetic mechanisms at the cellular and molecular level. |

|
| OVERVIEW: The mission of the Langston University American Institute for Goat Research (LUSAAS-AIGR) is to research, develop and transfer enhanced goat and hair sheep production and distribution system technologies, with impacts at local, state, regional, national, and international levels. AIGR strives to fulfill this mission through excellence in a results-driven, highly productive research program; an effective, client-oriented community-based extension approach; and dynamic international activities that stress business development and human capacity building. Cutting-edge research focuses on providing new information that are relevant and usable by producers, researchers, and consumers alike. Enhancing information exchange and producer skill levels through hands-on workshops, field days, and web-based information and interactive components is the goal of the extension program. Care for goat producers worldwide is engendered through international activities that encompass research, human capacity building, and village development. These programs, along with knowledgeable and caring personnel and a dedication to the improvement of the lives of goat and hair sheep producers around the world, have made the LU-AIGR a recognized leader in the arena of small ruminant production technologies. The recently enhanced focus on product development and consumption of meat and milk products has added a new dimension to the Institute. SL/SAAS and AIGR are committed to excellence in research, extension, teaching, and international programs in accordance with the Land Grant mission of Langston University. More information about SL/SAAS, AIGR, and LU are available at www.langston.edu and www.goats.langston.edu.
