Postdoc Opportunities in Molecular Biology

The Babraham Institute is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Scientist to study the role of extracellular proteostasis in healthy ageing and host defence against pathogens. The project addresses mechanisms that maintain protein quality outside cells and prevent protein aggregation, a process associated with age-related functional decline and diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease. The successful researcher will join the David group within the Institute’s Signalling Programme, a collaborative resea...

Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, is recruiting two Postdoctoral Associates for the Feng Laboratory in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the Rutgers Cancer Institute, part of Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences in New Brunswick, New Jersey. The Feng Lab investigates the development and progression of cancer, with particular emphasis on cancer metastasis, metabolic reprogramming, and the tumor microenvironment. Research projects examine the regulation and function of the tumor...

The University of Nottingham is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Fellow for the ERC-funded WATER-BLIND project, which investigates how plant roots sense and respond to water stress. The research will use the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana to identify novel genes and regulatory pathways involved in sensing water availability. A central focus is understanding how ion fluxes and mechanosensing pathways contribute to root adaptation to transient water stress. The project is suited to researchers...

Osnabrück University is recruiting a PhD candidate or postdoctoral researcher as a Research Associate to join an interdisciplinary team working at the interface of immunology and mechanobiology . The project, “Cyclic Mechanical Forces Sustain Cytotoxic Immune Competence,” examines how physiological mechanical forces encountered during circulation and breathing help maintain cytotoxic immune function. The research focuses on cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and natural killer (NK) cells, which play...

The Boettcher Lab, led by Principal Investigator Prof. Dr. med. Steffen Boettcher , is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for work in experimental hematology and functional genomics. The position is based in the Department of Medical Oncology and Hematology at University Hospital Zurich and the University of Zurich, within the Comprehensive Cancer Center Zurich. The laboratory investigates molecular mechanisms underlying normal and malignant hematopoiesis, with particular emphasis on hematopoi...

The Department of Forensic Sciences at The George Washington University is seeking a Postdoctoral Associate to support and expand the Forensic Molecular Biology Research Program in Washington, DC. The program applies molecular biology, genetics, genomics, and bioinformatics to forensic science and human identification, with the goal of improving the efficiency, accuracy, and informativeness of forensic genetic analyses and addressing challenging biological evidence. Research in Dr. Daniele Podin...

The Kiyoto Kasai Laboratory at the International Research Organization for Neurointelligence (IRCN), University of Tokyo, is seeking a specially appointed researcher equivalent to a postdoctoral fellow for a team-science project in translational psychiatry . The research examines the brain pathology of mental illnesses, particularly schizophrenia, using multi-layered data from humans and model animals. The project integrates MRI, omics, molecular biology, peripheral blood samples, and translatio...

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 Boon Lab at Washington University in St. Louis is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to investigate viral transmission, immune responses and vaccine science. The project focuses on influenza virus and SARS-CoV-2 infection and transmission using mouse and hamster models. The researcher will use barcoded viruses to track how pathogens replicate, disseminate and spread within and between hosts. The work will examine how vaccines, immune responses and environmental factors influence transmission,...
