Viviana Monje

Postdoctoral Associate opportunity in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the University at Buffalo, working with the Monje Group on computational research at the intersection of physics, biology, and computation. The project focuses on theoretical and computational studies of lipids in biomolecular mechanisms and material properties, including lipid-protein dynamics, lipid membrane biophysics, structural biology, and related biophysical phenomena at the cell membrane. Applicants should hold a PhD in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, Biophysics, or a related field. Required experience includes biomolecular simulation techniques and programming/scripting skills in Bash and Python. Preferred background includes molecular modelling, all-atom or coarse-grained approaches, enhanced sampling, computational biophysics/chemistry, high-performance computing, GPU-based computing, statistical analysis, hypothesis testing, and a strong publication record. This is a full-time postdoctoral role with a salary range of $57,000. The posting is open until filled. Required application materials include a CV and research statement. Institution: University at Buffalo, North Campus.
