Dear colleagues, A postdoctoral position funded by FAPESP is available at the Laboratory of Biochemistry and Bioluminescent System Technologies (UFSCar, Sorocaba campus) to work on the project "Development of temperature- and pH-sensing bioluminescent proteins and reporter genes for bioimaging," under the supervision of Prof. Vadim Viviani. The project is part of the FAPESP Thematic Grant "Bioluminescence: biodiversity; metabolic origin; structure/function and engineering of luciferases; applications in biosensors, bioassays, and environmental bioindication." The project involves engineering bioluminescent proteins for use as intracellular temperature and pH sensors. Candidates must have proven experience in rational protein design, molecular biology, heterologous expression and purification of luciferases, bioluminescent enzyme assays, and random and site-directed mutagenesis techniques. Fieldwork experience is desirable. Candidates must have defended their doctoral thesis within the last two years. The selection process will take place between August 1 and August 30, 2026, and will consist of an evaluation of the CV, documented experience, and alignment with the aforementioned projects. Expected start date: September 2026. Interested candidates should submit a CV (FAPESP format), a link to their Lattes CV, key articles in the relevant field, and a copy of their doctoral thesis to Vadim Viviani (Email: [email protected]).
