Job Title:
Post Doctoral Scholar


Department:
Arts and Sciences | Chemistry and Biochemistry Administration

We seek a highly motivated and productive individual with experience in production, handling, and characterization of nucleic acids or proteins.  An interest in learning native mass spectrometry, or past experience with native mass spectrometry, general mass spectrometry, or mass spectrometry instrument development, is desired. A candidate should have excellent communication and writing skills and be highly interested in working on their own project, yet also be able to multitask to work with graduate students on multiple projects and to develop advanced methods for native mass spectrometry. The Wysocki group works as a team and the group dynamics are excellent. In the posted role, the postdoc will carry out comprehensive laboratory experiments, including biochemical sample preparation methods and diverse native mass spectrometry and related measurements, as well as have the potential for applying computational and theoretical methods for data interpretation and predictive experimental design. The postdoc will be responsible for collecting data, operating and/or adapting the mass spectrometers, interpretation of data, and writing up results. It is the expectation that the postdoc will publish at least one to two papers annually as first author. In summary, the postdoc will prepare research results for publication in reports, papers, journals, books, and other media, and prepare and deliver seminars, talks or lectures for dissemination of knowledge, particularly the results of research undertaken.
