Dear all,
My lab has a NMR postdoc position open in intrinsically-disordered proteins and protein quality control machinery. We are super interested in investigating ubiquitin-related machinery whose dysregulation are implicated in neurodegenerative disorders such as ALS, and we collaborate with many other labs across the U.S. and internationally.
We are located in the Departments of Biology and Chemistry at Syracuse University in Syracuse, NY, USA (central New York state). We are adjacent to SUNY-Upstate Medical University and SUNY-ESF, which houses both a Bruker 600 and Bruker 800 MHz magnets. The 800 is equipped with a TCI cryoprobe for 13C-detect experiments. Plenty of opportunities exist to learn other biophysical techniques, microscopy, and cell biology approaches; we are happy to train.
Position is open immediately! Learn more about the position and apply here: https://www.sujobopps.com/postings/98419

The Castañeda lab is eager to recruit a motivated and creative Postdoctoral Research Associate for a fully-funded position in biomolecular nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The scientist will study the role of phase separation in protein quality control mechanisms on both molecular and cellular levels. Our lab uses a variety of biochemical and biophysical methods and techniques to uncover fundamental aspects of how proteins form biomolecular condensates. We aim to determine how protein quality control mechanisms interface with condensate assembly and disassembly, particularly in how cells respond to stress. We currently seek a researcher with background in biophysics and/or biochemistry to examine the physicochemical properties that determine physiological phase separation using molecular approaches such as NMR spectroscopy. The candidate will enter an openly collaborative environment with excellent colleagues/mentors and biophysical resources, including access to Bruker 600 and 800 MHz magnets
