Dear Colleagues, I post this for Dr. Yi Shi at the University of Pittsburgh.
*Description:* a postdoctoral position is available in the Shi laboratory of antibody biotechnology and proteomics at the Department of Cell Biology, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine (UPMC). The laboratory is at the forefront of developing transformative new technologies that integrate proteomics, computational biology, and structural approaches for large-scale antibody (especially camelid VHH antibody/ nanobody) discovery and characterization. The lab is also interested in applying these techniques to develop novel nanobody-based therapies for some of the most devastating diseases including COVID-19, cancer, and neurodegeneration. The lab is currently funded by several grants including the NIH, MJFF, and Alzheimer Foundation. More information about our research could be found here at www.shi-lab.org. For the successful incumbent, the initial appointment is 12 months with the possibility of renewal. Compensation will follow standard NIH Post-Doc salary rates and is based on experience. We strongly support the career development of our colleagues and trainees. A listing of Pitt employee benefits is available at https://www.hr.pitt.edu/current-employees/benefits Highly motivated individuals with a background in biochemistry, bioengineering, biophysics or structural biology (especially membrane protein structural biology) are welcome to apply. Successful candidates should have excellent communication skills and the desire to lead research projects. Interested candidates may submit their CV including names and contact information for two-three references, a short description of their research experience, and research goals to Yi Shi at ([email protected]).
