Thanks,
Kurt

Center at UCSF (NIC@UCSF) is a partnership between Nikon Instruments,
UCSF, and a number of other vendors that provides six state-of-the-art
microscopes for use by the UCSF community. These microscopes are used by
approximately 300 scientists a year and contribute data to approximately
40 publications a year.
The successful candidate will be the initial point of contact for users
seeking to use the NIC and will be responsible for advising them on the
choice of microscope for their experiment and will provide training on
the microscopes. This individual will also be responsible for routine
