About this position
Postdoctoral Associate opportunity in metabolomics and natural product chemistry at the University of Florida (Main Campus, Gainesville, Florida, United States). The position is part of an NIH-funded project on nematode chemical signaling led by Dr. Rebecca Butcher in the Department of Chemistry.
The research focuses on identifying bioactive small molecules from nematodes using genome editing, comparative metabolomics, LC-MS/MS, MS/MS networking, NMR spectroscopy, and total synthesis, and on studying their biosynthesis and biological activity. The role also includes mentoring graduate students, drafting manuscripts, and assisting with grant proposal development.
Applicants must have a PhD in chemistry or a related field and prior experience with LC-MS/MS, comparative metabolomics, and MS/MS networking. Preferred experience includes biological assays and NMR-based structure elucidation.
The appointment is initially for one year and may be renewed for up to three years depending on performance, conduct, and availability of funds. Salary is competitive and commensurate with qualifications and experience, and the role includes a full benefits package.
Applications are reviewed beginning 2026-08-04 and the position remains open until filled. To apply, submit the online application with a letter of application, CV, statement of teaching and research goals, and at least three references.
