The University of Oxford is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Proteomics and Lipidomics to join the group of Associate Professor Shabaz Mohammed in the Department of Pharmacology. The project investigates the characterisation of crosslinked proteins and lipids within a Wellcome Trust-funded collaborative research grant. The postdoctoral researcher will apply protein and lipid biomolecule methods to support proteome and lipidome characterisation, using sample preparation, liquid chroma...

This fully funded PhD will develop a rapid clinical decision-support technology for emergency bowel surgery. During an operation, surgeons may need to determine within minutes whether a length of bowel is viable. Existing laboratory biochemistry can provide relevant information, but the reported turnaround time is too long for this urgent decision. The project will create low-cost electrochemical sensors capable of producing quantitative, multi-marker measurements in minutes. It will use molecul...

Indiana University Bloomington invites applications for a postdoctoral research position in the laboratory of Dr. David Kehoe in the Department of Biology. The project investigates the DNA-binding activity of a new class of photoreceptors in marine Synechococcus , combining DNA/protein biochemistry with computational approaches. The research will determine the DNA-binding sites and light-color-regulated binding activities of two novel photoreceptors identified as master regulators of Type 4 Chro...

The Zaleski Lab in the Department of Chemistry at Indiana University is seeking a postdoctoral fellow/biomaterials scientist to join its multidisciplinary research environment. The project focuses on the design and synthesis of hybrid molecular and nanomaterial catalysts. The researcher will investigate bacterial cells, membrane biochemistry, extracellular vesicles, and interactions between cell-derived materials and nanomaterials. The work combines biomaterials research with bacterial cell grow...

The Department of Chemistry for Life Sciences at Uppsala University is recruiting a PhD student for a project in analytical chemistry focused on developing novel methods for single-cell analysis and quantification using direct infusion mass spectrometry. The project is centered on optimizing sampling and ionization probes for the sensitive detection of metabolites and lipids from individual cells, with the aim of studying cellular heterogeneity. The work combines custom-built analytical platform...

This postdoctoral research opportunity is based in the Division of Biology, Chemistry and Materials Science within the Office of Science and Engineering Labs at the Center for Devices and Radiological Health of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in Silver Spring, Maryland. The project addresses biofilms associated with medical device-related infections, with a focus on understanding how biofilms form on device surfaces and how they can be detected and controlled. The fellow will work on metho...

Washington State University’s Institute of Biological Chemistry, within the College of Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences, is seeking a Research Associate to work on the evaluation and certification of heat resilience in wheat. Based in Pullman, the appointment contributes to WSU’s land-grant mission and the Institute’s research on plant form and function, sustainable food systems, chemicals, and fuels. The research combines plant genetics, cell biology, molecular biology, bioche...

The Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering Department at Worcester Polytechnic Institute is seeking a Post-Doctoral Fellow to contribute to interdisciplinary research on novel, next-generation multifunctional construction materials . The work sits at the intersection of silica chemistry, biochemistry, and materials science, with a strong emphasis on understanding and designing materials with mechanical and electrical properties relevant to future infrastructure applications. The pos...
