The Marty laboratory (http://marty.lab.arizona.edu/ ) in the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry at the University of Arizona is seeking a postdoctoral research associate to perform research using mass spectrometry (MS) to study interactions of biomolecules with and within lipid membranes. This position will involve development of new biochemical methods and technologies to study proteins, peptides, and lipids, especially employing MS, nanodiscs, and other membrane mimetics. We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher to get new projects off the ground, and extra consideration will be given for candidates with experience in MS, lipids, and membrane proteins, especially with expertise in mass spectrometry.

Outstanding UA benefits include health, dental, vision, and life insurance; paid vacation, sick leave, and holidays; UA/ASU/NAU tuition reduction for the employee and qualified family members; access to UA recreation and cultural activities; and more!

The University of Arizona has been recognized for our innovative work-life programs. For more information about working at the University of Arizona and relocations services, please click here .
