Postdoctoral Associate opening in Molecular and Chemical Biology at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, United States.
The position is based in the Center for Drug Discovery and is part of an NIH R01-funded project focused on developing and characterizing dTAG knock-in (dTAG-KI) mouse models for biomedical and pharmacological research. The work combines CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing, molecular biology, animal experimentation, and drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) studies to investigate drug-metabolizing enzyme function in vivo.
Research themes include genome engineering, conditional protein degradation, mouse model development, Western blotting, molecular characterization, pharmacology, and translational drug discovery. The role offers advanced training in genome engineering, inducible protein degradation systems, animal-model development, and translational pharmacology.
Minimum qualification: MD or PhD in Basic Science, Health Science, or a related field. Preferred background includes molecular biology, genetics, pharmacology, biomedical sciences, mouse breeding/colony management, Western blotting, CRISPR/Cas9, genetically engineered mouse models, and dTAG technology. Strong scientific communication, organization, and collaboration skills are also valued.
Funding/salary information: the posting lists a salary of $63,480 and notes that Baylor College of Medicine typically follows NIH stipend guidelines for postdoctoral associates. The position is onsite only.
