Postdoctoral Position in Protein Science, Synthetic Biology, and Predictive AI Modeling George Washington University in United States

The George Washington University, in collaboration with NIST, is seeking a Post-Doctoral Protein Scientist for a high-impact research project based in Gaithersburg, MD. This opportunity is ideal for candidates passionate about high-throughput biology, synthetic biology, and the application of predictive AI modeling in the life sciences. The research focuses on bridging the sequence-to-function gap in protein science, involving large-scale metrology, automation, and the design of synthetic circuits using E. coli systems. Responsibilities include developing innovative methods for measuring protein sequence-function relationships, programming automated laboratory systems, designing complex plasmids, and characterizing protein functions and biophysical properties. The successful candidate will also be expected to disseminate research findings through peer-reviewed and open-science platforms. Applicants should possess a Ph.D. in Biology, Protein Engineering, Biological Engineering, or a related field, with expertise in molecular biology techniques, E. coli, and synthetic biology circuit design. The position supports national bio-infrastructure and offers a multidisciplinary research environment. Interested candidates should apply via the provided link and ensure they meet all qualifications.
