Aaron Wright

The Wright Lab at Baylor University, led by Aaron Wright (James R. Schofield Endowed Chair in Biomedical Sciences), is recruiting multiple postdoctoral fellows with expertise in chemical biology and/or chemoproteomics. The lab operates at the intersection of microbiome science and chemistry, focusing on characterizing microbial biochemical mechanisms and developing novel therapeutic strategies for gut and oral health. Research projects include the development and application of chemical biology and chemoproteomics approaches to enable targeted pathogen killing by bacteriophage in the oral microbiome. Applicants for the postdoctoral positions should hold a Ph.D. in chemical biology, chemistry, or a related field, and have relevant expertise. The lab is also seeking a lab manager at the M.S. or Ph.D. level, with responsibilities including lab management and collaborative research. Suitable backgrounds for the lab manager include microbiology, organic chemistry, or mass spectrometry-based proteomics/metabolomics. Interested candidates should prepare a CV, cover letter, and (for postdocs) two first-author manuscripts. Applications should be submitted both by contacting Aaron Wright directly (via LinkedIn or email) and by applying through the official Baylor University job application portals linked in the announcement. This is an excellent opportunity to join a dynamic research group at Baylor University, working on cutting-edge topics in chemical biology, chemoproteomics, and microbiome research, with a focus on health-related applications.

The Wright Lab at Baylor University, led by Professor Aaron Wright, is seeking 1-2 experienced postdoctoral researchers in the field of chemical biology. The lab is part of the Departments of Biology and Chemistry and is located in Waco, Texas, United States. This opportunity is ideal for candidates with a strong background in chemical biology, biology, or chemistry who are interested in advancing research at the intersection of these disciplines. As a postdoctoral researcher in the Wright Lab, you will engage in cutting-edge research in biomedical sciences, contributing to projects that integrate chemical and biological approaches to address important scientific questions. The lab offers a collaborative environment within Baylor University, a leading research institution. Applicants should hold a PhD in chemical biology, biology, chemistry, or a closely related field, and should have relevant research experience. The position is open until filled, and interested candidates are encouraged to apply as soon as possible through the Baylor University careers portal.
