About this position

Baylor College of Medicine is seeking a Postdoctoral Associate in the Division of Molecular Virology and Microbiology to conduct original research on vaccine development for drug-resistant pathogens.

The research addresses the growing impact of antimicrobial resistance and the need for new vaccine targets against bacterial infections, including Escherichia coli, a major cause of infections worldwide. Multiple projects are available, with research overlapping an established phage biology program and center.

The postdoctoral researcher will develop new experimental paradigms and design controlled experiments, analyze molecular data using computational tools, and contribute to sequence analysis and protein antigen design. The role also includes engaging with current literature, discussing findings in group meetings, writing scientific manuscripts and grants, presenting research results, and attending conferences.

The position is based onsite in Houston, Texas, within a biomedical research environment spanning molecular virology, microbiology, vaccine science, antimicrobial resistance, and phage biology.

Funding details

The salary range is $63,480. Baylor College of Medicine typically follows NIH-stipulated stipend guidelines for Postdoctoral Associates. The work is partly funded by the National Institutes of Health and foundation funds.

What's required

Applicants must hold an MD or PhD in Basic Science, Health Science, or a related field. No prior experience is required. The role also calls for the ability to design controlled experiments, analyze molecular data using computational tools related to sequence information and protein antigen design, stay current with scientific literature, write manuscripts and grants, present research findings, and attend conferences.
