Alan,
Please forward to any of your researchers (or others in the department)
that are interested a hard money scientific staff position. My buddy Nate
has a great electronic-structure background with Henry F Schaefer and
Angela Wilson, and lots of biochemistry work recently at Memphis.
Cheers,
~Scott

Dear Scott,
Thank you for passing the word along on the job opportunity. If you can
forward to Alan or anyone at Harvard that might have a good candidate in
their lab, I will owe you a poisonous amount of beers someday! Here’s what
I have been sending to people:
In August, I will be promoted to a tenure-track faculty position at
University of Memphis. One aspect of my start up package is the chance to
“replace myself” by hiring a Research Scientist in the department. The
formal search should be commencing in a few weeks.
This position was a valuable “post-postdoc” stepping stone for me. I was
able to flesh out research ideas and now I am very well prepared for the
tenure-track gauntlet. I must admit this is somewhat of a form letter that
I am casting to various friends, colleagues, and mentors in order to find
excellent potential applicants before the job opportunity is posted. If you
would like to discuss the position further, or tell me about someone you
may have in mind, let’s chat on the phone! My office # is 901-678-2029, and
my cell # is 706-207-6327.
I am looking for someone with experience in electronic structure theory
development, enzyme modeling, or bioinformatics, but the search will not be
limited to someone with these skill sets. The hire must have postdoctoral
experience. Their salary would start at ~$48K salary, which goes a long way
in Memphis, TN. Research will take up the vast majority of his or her
responsibilities. The hire will assist me in developing my research
program, but will also have a great opportunity to initiate their research
ideas. There is no obligation to teach unless there are exceptional
shortages in our instructor pool, but the hire can volunteer if he/she
would like to gain teaching experience. This is a “hard money” staff
position, but they will only be under my supervision for three full years.
Thank you for your time!
Nate
