Dear All,
Multiple openings for postdoctoral fellows are available at the University of Minnesota, USA, Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, and Biophysics, in the research group of Mikael Elias (http://www.eliaslab.org/ ) to work on NIH and NSF funded projects. In brief, the projects relate to the microbial signaling mechanism termed quorum sensing, and ways to interfere with it (known as quorum quenching strategies). The project involves the use of engineered proteins and other effectors to investigate the importance of microbial signaling at the cellular, the microbiome and the organism levels. For more details, see (https://grantome.com/grant/NIH/R35-GM133487-01 and https://nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=2020695 <https://nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=2020695&HistoricalAwards=false > &HistoricalAwards=false) The ideal candidates will have strong expertise in one or several of the following areas: structural biology, protein engineering, bioinformatics, metabolomics, transcriptomics, next gen sequencing or microbiology. The pay scale for the positions follow NIH guidelines. Fellows will join a highly stimulating environment, working in the BioTechnology Institute, and will have outstanding opportunities on a research projects with numerous possible applications. The University of Minnesota, founded in 1851, is one of the largest university in the United States, and ranks amongst the most prestigious research universities in the world. The campus is located in the heart of the Minneapolis-St Paul (Twin Cities) area, an enjoyable, affordable place, extremely rich in cultural events and natural attractions.
