About this position

Postdoctoral Fellowship in antibody sequencing and immunoproteomics at Escola Paulista de Medicina, Universidade Federal de São Paulo (EPM-Unifesp), Brazil, supported by FAPESP.

The project focuses on selecting B cells and antibodies from volunteers who have suffered multiple snakebite envenomations. The fellow will work with mass spectrometry, RNA sequencing, heterologous expression of antibodies, and downstream functional testing using surface plasmon resonance and ELISA to compare antibody effectiveness against snake venom toxins.

Eligibility highlights include a PhD in a related field obtained within the last 7 years, strong experience in either mass spectrometry-based proteomics or RNA sequencing, and a background in immunology and biochemistry. Experience with quantitative proteomics, de novo peptide sequencing, cell/plasma isolation, flow cytometry, recombinant protein expression, and peer-reviewed publications is desirable.

The fellowship provides a monthly stipend of R$ 12,570.00 plus a research contingency fund equal to 10% of the annual fellowship value for research-related expenses. Applications are sent by email to Alexandre Keiji Tashima and must include a cover letter, CV, and two recommendation letters. Deadline: 18 October 2026.
