About this position
Rice University is offering a postdoctoral position in the lab of Assistant Professor Julea Vlassakis, focusing on the development of microscale tools to investigate the biochemical and biophysical features of disordered proteins in pediatric bone cancers. The research aims to advance single-cell proteomic and structural biology methods to better understand the roles of protein disorder in cancer progression and to inform novel drug design strategies. This opportunity is ideal for candidates with a background in bioengineering, biomedical engineering, biology, or related fields, and a strong interest in cancer research and advanced analytical techniques.
The successful candidate will lead projects that integrate cutting-edge technologies in single-cell analysis and structural biology, contributing to the understanding of cancer mechanisms at the molecular level. The position offers the chance to work in a collaborative and innovative environment at Rice University, with potential for significant impact in pediatric oncology and drug development.
Applicants should possess a PhD and relevant research experience. The position is expected to begin in January, and further details, including application instructions, can be found in the linked job posting. Candidates are encouraged to share this opportunity with others who may be interested.
