Postdoctoral Researcher: Join the CZ Condensate Flux Consortium, a collaborative initiative supported by the Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative at Princeton University, the University of Pennsylvania, and Rockefeller University. We are seeking highly motivated postdoctoral researchers to contribute to mapping the dynamics of RNA and protein within biomolecular condensates, unraveling their roles in cell physiology and disease. This project aims to develop innovative technologies and frameworks for therapeutic and bioengineering applications, focusing on various aspects of ribonucleoprotein flux and subcellular aging.
Designation: Postdoctoral Researcher
Research Area:
- Imaging spatiotemporal dynamics of RNA in living cells
- RNA processing and modifications in disease
- Biophysics of condensate assembly and dynamics
- Computational approaches to biomolecular assembly
- Mapping ribonucleoprotein structure
- Proteomics approaches
Location: Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, Rockefeller University
Eligibility/Qualification:
- Ph.D. in a relevant field (biology, bioengineering, biophysics, computational biology, etc.)
- Strong background and interest in one or more of the specified project areas
- Demonstrated research experience in RNA and protein dynamics, condensate assembly, or related fields
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills
- Ability to work independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team
Job Description:
Postdoctoral Researcher – CZ Condensate Flux Consortium
Postdoctoral fellows will be appointed to labs at Princeton (Jerelle Joseph, Cliff Brangwynne, or Ileana Cristea), Penn (Arjun Raj or Kathy Liu), or Rockefeller (Sebastian Klinge).
