Postdoctoral Fellow in Proteins, RNA, Systems Biology, and Neurodegenerative Disease Merrimack College in United States

Postdoctoral Fellow opportunity in the Vogel Lab at Merrimack College (North Andover, Massachusetts, USA).

The Vogel Lab is recruiting one to two postdoctoral research positions as the group moves from New York University to Merrimack College. The lab’s research sits at the intersection of proteins, RNA, systems biology, gene regulation, proteomics, translation, and neurodegenerative disease. The post highlights work on expression regulation in response to protein misfolding stress and on key genes involved in neurodegenerative disease, with a focus on regulatory modes at the level of translation.

Research environment: The lab is described as part of a vibrant Boston-area research community and uses experimental and computational approaches to study protein expression regulation in health and disease.

Eligibility / fit: The post is aimed at candidates who are excited by proteins or RNA, interested in systems biology, and motivated to investigate individual gene regulation and disease-related mechanisms. Specific degree or technical requirements are not listed in the post.

Funding: This is a postdoctoral research opening; the post does not specify stipend, salary, or other funding details.

How to apply: Interested candidates should contact Christine Vogel at [email protected] or apply via the linked job posting. The Merrimack College posting is dated April 29, 2026.

Useful links: the lab’s NYU website and a related bioRxiv paper are linked in the post for background on the group’s research.
