About this position

The Debler Laboratory at Thomas Jefferson University is recruiting a postdoctoral scientist for a project at the intersection of biochemistry and structural biology. The position focuses on understanding the mechanism of macromolecular machines and assemblies using high-end structural approaches, with particular emphasis on x-ray crystallography and/or cryo-electron microscopy.

The lab is described as well funded by NIH, strongly equipped with state-of-the-art instrumentation, and embedded in a multidisciplinary research environment with established collaborations. The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology provides excellent structural biology infrastructure, including an upgraded Glacios microscope with a Falcon 4 camera, regular access to Titan Krios microscopes, and access to synchrotron beamlines for high-resolution data collection.

The postdoctoral researcher will join a dynamic, team-oriented, and expanding research group pursuing fundamental questions in structural mechanisms of biomolecular assemblies. The advert highlights openness to candidates with diverse academic backgrounds and scientific perspectives, especially those bringing strong biochemistry or structural biology expertise.

Prospective applicants are invited to learn more about the group through the Debler Laboratory website and to contact Dr. Debler for inquiries.

Funding details

The laboratory is well funded by NIH; the postdoc is in a well-equipped, funded research environment.

What's required

A Ph.D. or equivalent degree in Biochemistry, Biophysics, Chemistry, or Molecular Biology is required. Applicants must have at least one first-author publication in a reputable journal from their terminal degree. A background in biochemistry, x-ray crystallography, or cryo-electron microscopy is preferred, and the lab welcomes highly motivated candidates with diverse academic backgrounds and skill sets.
