About this position

The Staller lab in the Department of Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of California, Berkeley is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a collaborative project in systems biology and molecular/cell biology. The lab, part of the Division of Genetics, Genomics, Evolution, and Development and connected to the Center for Computational Biology, studies transcription factor function using a genomics approach to biochemistry.

The project investigates how folded protein domains cause transcription factors to form filaments and how filament formation contributes to cooperative DNA binding and gene regulation. The successful candidate will work on transcription factors from yeast, human, and plant systems, combining experimental and computational approaches.

Research activities include molecular biology and yeast-based assays, Illumina sequencing library preparation, DNA isolation, PCR, yeast cell culture, high-throughput functional screening, cloning large plasmid libraries, data analysis, and computational modeling. The role also includes designing and executing experiments, managing data, preparing manuscripts, presenting research, contributing to grant proposals, and mentoring students.

The lab offers opportunities for experimental training, computational training, and career development within an interdisciplinary environment that integrates experiments, theory, simulations, machine learning, and evolutionary comparison.

Funding details

Salary estimate $71,491–$79,727 per year; appointment is for two years with possible extension based on performance and availability of funding. The project is funded by the HSFP.

What's required

PhD (or equivalent international degree) is required, or enrollment in a PhD program at application, with the PhD completed by the start date. Applicants must have no more than three years of post-degree research experience by the start date. Preferred qualifications include a PhD in cell biology, biochemistry, genetics, genomics, yeast biology, quantitative biology, systems biology, or a related field; experience with molecular biology and molecular cloning; experience working with yeast; laboratory research experience; excellent writing and communication skills; ability to develop and troubleshoot new methodologies; a strong publication record in peer-reviewed journals; and being organized and attentive to detail. Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States at the time of hire, and visa sponsorship is not available.
