Post Doctoral Researcher, Song Lab

Full-time

University of Delaware

Pay Garde: 90E

Context of the Job:

We invite applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher to join a dynamic, interdisciplinary research team investigating the molecular mechanisms of subcellular RNA transport and post transcriptional regulation mediated by microRNAs during early development. This is a unique opportunity to conduct cutting-edge science and collaborate with a dedicated team of students to advance knowledge in the fields of cell and developmental biology.

Responsibilities

We are seeking a highly motivated researcher to join our laboratory, which focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms of post-transcriptional regulation during early development using sea urchin embryos and mammalian cells as models.

The successful candidate will contribute to a collaborative project investigating the evolutionarily conserved functions of microRNAs and their subcellular transport during development. Utilizing microinjection, cellular, molecular, biochemical, proteomics, and fluorescence microscopy techniques, the researcher will develop novel approaches to assess microRNA regulation and functions in fixed and living embryos and mammalian cells.

Additional responsibilities include:

Plan and execute research tasks independently
Write up and present findings on a regular basis
Mentor and work alongside a small team of undergraduate and graduate students

Qualifications

Education: Ph.D. in Developmental Biology, Cell Biology, RNA Biology, Molecular Biology, or related field.
Technical Expertise: A strong background in molecular and cellular biology techniques, including molecular cloning, confocal imaging, protein expression, biochemistry, and cell culture
Research Skills: Demonstrate experience in experimental design, data analysis, and data interpretation, alongside a proven ability to bring research projects to completion and publication
Collaboration: Ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team
Communication: Excellent organizational, written and oral communication skills.
Publication Record: A record of publishing at least two first-author peer-reviewed articles from prior research
Preferred (Desirable): Experience with bioinformatics procedures, specifically programming in R to analyze large datasets such as high-throughput nucleic acid sequencing (e.g., RNA-seq) and proteomics datasets

Appointment Terms

Duration: Initial appointment of 1 year, renewable based on performance and funding availability
Compensation: Salary is competitive and commensurate with experience
