Job Description
December 26, 2012
Postdoctoral fellow position
A postdoc fellow position is open immediately to study tRNA biology, using biochemical, biophysical, and bioinformatics methods. The focus is on tRNA biology of mammalian mitochondria, which is associated with the development of many human cardiovascular and neurological diseases.
Ideal candidates must have experience in biochemical and biophysical experience and must have used quantitative measurements. Experience in fluorescence analysis of proteins or nucleic acids, in enzyme assays, RNA isolation, nucleic acid preparation, and kinetic concepts are important. The position is in Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology of Thomas Jefferson University, located in the center city of Philadelphia, USA, surrounded by historical landmarks of the US founding history. The lab has a strong infrastructure for promoting research and for networking with collaborators around the world. We have a strong track record of publications and we encourage teamwork and leadership and participation in domestic and international meetings. This is a great place to build a successful research career.
