NIH-funded Postdoc Position: The project uses C. elegans as a model system, single-cell sequencing, and proteomics to study molecular mechanisms underlying transcellular stress signaling between organs during aging to safeguard organismal proteostasis. You will join an interdisciplinary team of researchers in the Proteostasis Group at UNC Charlotte. NIH funding is available for several years. Ideal candidates will have graduated less than 1 year from the start date. UNC Charlotte offers a collaborative and highly dynamic research environment, with excellent training opportunities for career development, a complete benefits package, and competitive salaries.
