About this position
Washington University in St. Louis is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for the Mass Spectrometry Technology Access Center (MTAC) within the McDonnell Genome Institute (MGI). The center supports regional, national, and international researchers with proteomics-focused services and operates in a dynamic environment built around high-end mass spectrometry and related analytical infrastructure.
The postdoctoral associate will contribute to multiple biomedical service projects under the direction of the center leadership, taking part in research planning, sample preparation, execution, data analysis, interpretation, and reporting. The role combines independent scientific work with collaborative project support, and the successful candidate will be expected to communicate results in group meetings, help prepare manuscripts, and contribute to presentations and reports for the research center.
This position is especially suited to a researcher with expertise in untargeted and targeted metabolomics/lipidomics. The work emphasizes developing robust untargeted pipelines using multiple databases and in-house libraries, as well as creating quantitative targeted assays using PRM and Skyline or equivalent tools. The environment includes multiple Orbitrap and Triple Quad mass spectrometers, multidimensional liquid chromatography, bioinformatics workflows, and expanding applications in small-molecule analysis.
The postdoctoral researcher will work within WashU Medicine’s research environment and interact with collaborators and team members across projects, contributing to method development, optimization, troubleshooting, and high-quality scientific output.
