    Default job background
    Description

    The Jomaa lab is dedicated to exploring molecular mechanisms involved in regulating protein synthesis machinery during cellular stress, focusing on protein localization to mitochondria and its impact on dormant cancer cells. The lab, known for its recent publications in prestigious journals like Science and Nature Communications, is currently looking for a highly motivated post-doctoral researcher to join their dynamic and engaging team.

    About the Position:

    • Utilize molecular biology, biochemical, and structural biology techniques
    • Investigate protein synthesis machinery and regulatory factors
    • Employ state-of-the-art techniques like cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET)
    • Collaborate with a young, energetic, and fun group

    The ideal candidate is a recent PhD graduate with a background in biochemistry and/or mammalian cell culture, with a preference for expertise in structural biology techniques. This postdoctoral role offers a temporary appointment for individuals who have obtained a doctoral degree within the past five years, providing valuable training and research opportunities under the supervision of a senior scholar.

    Minimum Requirements:

    • Education: Doctoral degree
    • Experience: None required
    • Licensure: Not necessary

    This Research Associate position is initially a 12-month appointment, with the possibility of extension based on performance and funding availability. Interested applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as possible, with positions open until filled.
