Ri Wu

Ri Wu, Assistant Professor at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), is recruiting a postdoc in Structural Mass Spectrometry at the Department of Chemistry and the Center for Advanced Light Source in Shenzhen, China . The group is highly interdisciplinary and develops mass spectrometry-based structural tools to study conformational dynamics and non-covalent interactions in proteins and protein complexes. Research interests include intrinsically disordered proteins , metalloenzymes , microproteins , peptides, antibiotics, and synthetic biopolymers. The work also involves building new mass spectrometry instrumentation, including gas-phase fluorescence spectroscopy , performing site-specific protein modifications, and integrating bottom-up/top-down proteomics , bioNMR , and free-electron lasers . Applicants should have a PhD completed within the last three years or be close to finishing . Experience in mass spectrometry is a plus, though not necessarily native MS. The position is open to candidates from diverse backgrounds, including instrumentation, computation, biology, chemistry, physics , and related areas. This is a three-year postdoc with a flexible start around early 2027 . The post specifies an application deadline of November 15, 2026 . Interested candidates should email [email protected] to discuss the opportunity.
