[ccp4bb] Postdoctoral Position at UT Southwestern Medical Center
Dear Colleagues, A postdoctoral fellow position is available in the laboratory of Xin Liu, in the Cecil H. and Ida Green Center for Reproductive Biology Sciences at UT Southwestern Medical Center to study chromatin structure and genome regulation. The basis of genome regulation by chromatin is a long-standing mystery in biology. Research in the Liu Lab is focused on structure and function of large chromatin complexes, which dictate formation of heritable chromatin structure and impact genome function. These chromatin complexes are also frequently dysregulated in human disease, including cancers and developmental disorders. To achieve the research goal, the Liu Lab uses structural biology tools, including biochemical reconstitution (e.g. protein-protein, protein-nucleosome, or protein-non-coding RNA complexes), X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM, to reveal three-dimensional structures of chromatin complexes. In addition, in the ongoing projects the Liu Lab performs structure-based functional studies in cancer and stem cells by employing genome editing and genomics tools. Examples of recent publications from the lab include: Science 350:aac4383 (2015) (PMID: 26472914<https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26472914/>), eLife 6:e31558 (2017) (PMID: 29185984<https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29185984/>), Molecular Cell 69:840-852 (2018) (PMID: 29499137<https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29499137/>), PNAS 117:16992-17002 (2020) (PMID: 32631994<https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32631994/>), Molecular Cell 77:1265-1278 (2020) (PMID: 31959557<https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31959557/>).
