Postdoctoral Associate

CLASSIFICATION MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS:

Qualified applicants should have completed a relevant Ph.D. degree in structural biology, chemical biology, or organic/medicinal chemistry.

JOB DESCRIPTION:

Effective immediately, the Disney group in the Department of Chemistry at The Herbert Wertheim UF Scripps Institute for Biomedical Innovation & Technology (https://disney.scripps.ufl.edu) is seeking to hire a Postdoctoral Associate in RNA Chemical Biology.

Lab Overview:

The Disney group is a chemical biology laboratory focused on developing rational approaches to design highly selective therapeutics from only genome sequence. Known for its prolific output and pioneering research culture, the group has furthered advancements in annotating RNA structure from sequence alongside several novel technologies created in-house. The laboratory’s targeting of RNA by small molecules, an ambitious and highly focused enterprise in pursuit of chemical probe and lead medicine development, is summarized in Nature Reviews Drug Discovery (2023) 618(7963): 169–179.

Other representative publications from the Disney group include:

Studying disease mediated by RNA repeat expansions that cause genetically defined ALS and dementia:

o Science Translation Medicine (2021) 13:eabd5991; doi: 10.1126/scitranslmed.abd5991

Our Commitment: The Disney group is highly committed to each individual’s professional development during his or her time in the lab. A high impact research project and training plan to support the achievement of short-term as well as long-term career goals is customized for each student.

EXPECTED SALARY:

Commensurate with experience.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

Qualified applicants should have completed a relevant Ph.D. degree in structural biology, chemical biology, or organic/medicinal chemistry.

PREFERRED:

Preference will be given to candidates with strong skills in RNA biology techniques, molecular biology, and biochemical methods. Previous experience with RNA-seq data analysis, DNA encoded library design and screening, and structure-based design is also desirable.

Highly motivated candidates possessing a strong academic track-record, a high-impact publication list, a team-player mentality, and an interest in targeting the RNA world are poised for success in the group.

The Disney group employs a broad range of experimental techniques, and thus a wide set of research skills is preferable, and a willingness to learn new methods is essential.
