The user wants me to reformat a job posting into clean, well-structured semantic HTML. Let me analyze the content and apply the rules. First, I need to identify the sections. The job posting has: - Location, Category, Department, Shift, Position Type, Scheduled Weekly Hours, Req # - these are metadata - Job Description with multiple paragraphs - "To Apply" section - "For More Information" section - Boilerplate at the end (EEO, search firms, AI, etc.) Rules: - Use

for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule) - Use
  • for lists,

    for prose - Do NOT repeat job title as heading (page already shows it) - Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

    or drop it - Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail - Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions - Include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text - Never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them - Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones - Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences Let me parse the content: Metadata at top: Location Memphis, TN, Category Faculty, Department Developmental Neurobiology, Shift Weekday Day, Position Type Full Time, Scheduled Weekly Hours 40, Req # JR7709. These are minor metadata - fold into a short

    or drop. I'll include a brief metadata paragraph. Job Description: Multiple paragraphs describing the role, the center, the department, what they're looking for, qualifications, etc. "To Apply" section: application instructions - remove per rules (remove application instructions). "For More Information": contact info - could be included as a paragraph. Boilerplate: EEO, search firms, AI - remove. Now, what sections to create? The posting doesn't have explicit "Responsibilities", "Requirements", "Qualifications", "Skills", "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule" headings. But it has substantive content about the role, qualifications, and benefits (startup packages). I need to create sections based on content. Possible sections: - About the role (or "About the position") - describes the faculty position, the centers, the research focus - Qualifications - lists PhD/MD, 3+ years postgraduate, strong record, potential for independent program - Research focus / Areas of interest - lists specific areas: synaptogenesis, polarized trafficking, neuronal genome organization, cryo-ET/vEM development - Benefits - mentions competitive recruitment packages, substantial startup funding, equipment, lab space, personnel support, continued institutional support, Advanced Research Center - Application info - but rules say remove application instructions. However "For More Information" contact could be a brief note. But rules: "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it". The posting has specific content for qualifications, research areas, benefits. It doesn't have a "Responsibilities" list per se, but the description includes what the successful candidate will do: establish independent multidisciplinary research program, address fundamental questions, integrate mechanistic approaches with advanced imaging. Could be "Responsibilities" or "Role overview". Better to have: - About the role (overview) - Research focus (areas of interest) - Qualifications - Benefits (since specific details given) - Contact (for more information) But "Benefits" is a heading they mentioned; the posting does state benefits: "highly competitive recruitment packages, including substantial startup funding, equipment, laboratory space, personnel support, and continued institutional support beyond the startup period." That's specific. "Schedule" - the posting says Shift Weekday Day, Scheduled Weekly Hours 40. That's schedule info. Could include a Schedule section? The rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state schedule (Weekday Day, 40 hours). But it's minor metadata. Could fold into a metadata paragraph. Similarly, Pay not mentioned. I'll create a metadata paragraph at top with location, position type, hours, shift, req #. Then sections: - About the role - Research focus - Qualifications - Benefits - Contact (for more information) But "Contact" not a standard heading; maybe "For more information". The rules list example headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. "For more information" not listed, but could be a paragraph. Better to include contact info as a paragraph at end. Now, structure:

    Location: Memphis, TN | Position Type: Full Time | Shift: Weekday Day | Scheduled Weekly Hours: 40 | Requisition: JR7709

    But need to preserve all substantive information. The job description is long; I should break into paragraphs. Let me extract the job description text: "The Center of Excellence for Structural Cell Biology (CoE-SCB) and the Division of Neuronal Cell Biology in the Department of Developmental Neurobiology at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital invites applications from exceptional and creative scientists for a faculty position focused on neuronal cell biology and the application and development of cryogenic electron tomography (cryo-ET) and volume electron microscopy (vEM). The successful candidate will join the CoE-SCB and the Division of Neuronal Cell Biology, holding a faculty appointment in the Department of Developmental Neurobiology, creating a close scientific interface between these highly collaborative research environments. We seek an investigator who will establish an independent, multidisciplinary research program addressing fundamental questions in neuronal cell biology through the integration of mechanistic approaches with advanced structural and cellular imaging. Areas of particular interest include the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying synaptogenesis and synaptic transmission, polarized trafficking and organelle dynamics in neurons, neuronal genome organization, and other aspects of neuronal architecture and function that can be uniquely interrogated through cryo-ET and vEM. Investigators developing new cryo-ET, vEM, correlative imaging, or quantitative image-analysis approaches for neuronal cell biology are also strongly encouraged to apply. This recruitment represents a joint strategic effort between the CoE-SCB and the Division of Neuronal Cell Biology within the Department of Developmental Neurobiology to establish a research program that bridges molecular, organellar, and cellular scales. The CoE-SCB provides an integrated environment for structural cell biology, bringing together expertise in cryo-EM, cryo-ET, cryogenic volume imaging, correlative microscopy, and computational image analysis. The Center works closely with investigators across St. Jude as well as external academic and industry partners to develop and deploy emerging technologies for understanding biological mechanisms directly within cells and tissues. The Department of Developmental Neurobiology provides an outstanding complementary environment for investigating neuronal development, organization, and function. Investigators have access to specialized resources that include human stem-cell systems, advanced live-cell and super-resolution imaging, Lattice Light Sheet microscopy, Meso-SPIM instrumentation, and sophisticated image processing and analysis. Together, the capabilities of the Division of Neuronal Cell Biology within the Department of Developmental Neurobiology and the CoE-SCB provide an exceptional opportunity to connect dynamic cellular processes with molecular and ultrastructural organization across an unusually broad range of spatial and temporal scales. We are particularly interested in early-career investigators who are excited by the opportunity to build an ambitious research program at the interface of neuronal cell biology and structural cell biology and to contribute intellectually and technologically to the growing cryo-ET and vEM community at St. Jude. St. Jude provides highly competitive recruitment packages, including substantial startup funding, equipment, laboratory space, personnel support, and continued institutional support beyond the startup period. The Department of Developmental Neurobiology and the CoE-SCB are housed within St. Jude's 625,000-square-foot Advanced Research Center, designed specifically to support interdisciplinary research and cutting-edge technologies. Faculty appointments at the Assistant or Associate Member level may be considered. Successful applicants should hold a PhD and/or MD degree, have at least three years of relevant postgraduate experience, and demonstrate a strong record of scientific productivity and the potential to develop an innovative, independent research program." I'll split into paragraphs for "About the role" and then separate "Research focus" and "Qualifications" and "Benefits". But the description mixes role, research focus, qualifications, benefits. I'll separate logically. About the role: first few paragraphs up to "Areas of particular interest include..." then Research focus list. Qualifications: "Faculty appointments at the Assistant or Associate Member level may be considered. Successful applicants should hold a PhD and/or MD degree, have at least three years of relevant postgraduate experience, and demonstrate a strong record of scientific productivity and the potential to develop an innovative, independent research program." Benefits: "St. Jude provides highly competitive recruitment packages, including substantial startup funding, equipment, laboratory space, personnel support, and continued institutional support beyond the startup period. The Department of Developmental Neurobiology and the CoE-SCB are housed within St. Jude's 625,000-square-foot Advanced Research Center, designed specifically to support interdisciplinary research and cutting-edge technologies." Also the part about CoE-SCB and Department resources could be in About the role or a separate "Environment and resources" section. But keep it simple. I'll create:
