Position description: The research group of Dr. Danica Fujimori at University of California San Francisco is seeking highly motivated postdoctoral candidates with a background in biochemistry, structural biology or chemical biology to join our research group. The broad interests of the lab are in post-translational and post-transcriptional regulation of macromolecular function. We are seeking new members to contribute to the lab’s research. Currently available projects explore the mechanistic basis of domain cross-talk in regulation of chromatin methylation as well as structure-guided discovery of small molecule ligands for epigenetic proteins. We combine biochemical and functional studies with structural methods such as cryo-EM, NMR and X-ray crystallography. For examples of our previous work please see: Ortiz Torres et al, Nature Comm 2015, 6:6204; Korczynska et al J Med Chem 2015, 59:1580; Pack et al J Biol Chem 2016, 291:6060.
Qualifications: • PhD in biochemistry, chemical or structural biology • Strong record of accomplishment and publications • Effective communication skills • The successful candidate is expected to function with a high degree of independence • Ability to work as a member of a collaborative team To Apply: Interested candidates should send their CV with contact information of three referees, a description of their past research and a description of their future interests to Dr. Danica Fujimori at: [email protected] To learn more about the Fujimori lab visit: http://fujimorilab.ucsf.edu/ Environment: The Fujimori lab and UCSF offer a rich collaborative environment for postdoctoral fellows.
