Postdoctoral Associate | Molecular Biology
Qualifications
- Ph.D. in cell biology, molecular biology, biophysics, biomedical engineering, or related field of study.
- Prior research experience in at least two of the following areas: pluripotent stem cell biology and differentiation, advanced microscopy, genome editing, and proteomics.
- Candidates should have a publication record in peer-reviewed journals.
- Excellent writing and communication skills, able to work independently and effectively with other members in a productive team across continents.
- Experience with R, Python or similar statistical package is helpful, as well as experience with proteomics data analyses and bioinformatics.
About the role
The Hinson lab is seeking an independent, highly motivated PhD-level scientist to join our trans-continental collaborative group funded by the Human Frontiers Science Program (HFSP).
The overarching goal of this project is to leverage human pluripotent stem cell technology and advanced structural biology methods to define mechanisms and rules of sarcomere assembly and function.
Responsibilities
As part of the group, this talented individual would have access to a world-class consortium of scientists across pluripotent stem cell biology, 3-dimensional organoids/microtissue assays, super resolution microscopy, and structural biology.
Requirements
The ideal candidate would have a strong background in cell and molecular biology particularly in stem cell differentiation, advanced imaging and protein-protein interaction studies.
Skills
Experience with R, Python or similar statistical package is helpful, as well as experience with proteomics data analyses and bioinformatics.
