The laboratory of Dr. Yogesh Gupta at University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio (UT Health San Antonio™) is seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic Postdoctoral Fellow to study protein-nucleic acid interactions in post-transcriptional gene regulation and chromatin biology. We combine various structural biology tools (X-ray, cryo-EM, NMR) with *in silico*, and cell-based methods to address basic mechanistic questions, and exploit this knowledge for drug development. Our well equipped lab is physically located within the Greehey Children’s Cancer Research Institute <http://gccri.uthscsa.edu/> (Greehey CCRI) at UT Health San Antonio. In addition, we have full access to an extensive array of institutional core facilities (Biochemistry core <http://biochem.uthscsa.edu/core_facilities.php>, CIDD <http://utcidd.org/>, Research core labs <http://research.uthscsa.edu/RCL/index.shtml>), and regular access to synchrotron beamlines.
Applicants with demonstrated experience in protein biochemistry and structural biology, and keen interest in studying large protein-nucleic acid assemblies by X-ray and cryo-EM are preferred. Candidates are expected to possess strong organizational, interpersonal skills, and ability to work as part of a team. Candidate should hold (or soon expect to hold) a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in a related discipline. Prior experience in X-ray crystallography, biophysical methods (SPR, AUC, ITC, MST etc.), and enzyme kinetics is desirable. Salary is competitive ($52,704 per year plus standard fringe benefits of UT Health San Antonio). San Antonio offers affordable cost of living and there is no state income tax in Texas.
