We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Fellow to join the Microchemistry, Proteomics & Lipidomics (MPL) department. The successful candidate will develop a native mass spectrometry based platform for high-throughput lipid transporter and receptor ligand binding and signaling. In addition, the achievement of high-resolution structures will enable elucidation of signaling and transport mechanisms of human membrane targets. You will perform a range of experimental methods, including protein production, biochemical assays, native mass spectrometry and high-resolution structural analyses.

Who you are:

Requirements:

• A PhD in Chemistry, Cell Biology, Bioinformatics, Biochemistry, Cancer Immunology, or a related discipline

• One or more first author research publications (or in press) in high quality journals

• Experience with native mass spectrometry and other structural enabling technologies

• Hands-on experience cloning, engineering and optimizing the production of protein targets for functional and/or structural studies

Additional Desired Qualifications:

• Excellent communication, interpersonal and organizational skills

• An understanding of membrane protein biochemistry is a plus

• Proficiency in structure determination using X-ray crystallography and/or cryo-EM is desired
