Postdoctoral Associate

Baylor College of Medicine

Job Description

Summary

A Postdoctoral Associate position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Michael J. Robertson in the Verna & Marrs McLean Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Pharmacology at Baylor College of Medicine.

The Robertson lab’s research focus is in combining cryogenic electron microscopy and molecular dynamics simulations to generate movies of membrane proteins in action and leveraging the resulting insights in dynamics-based drug discovery. We have an opening for a postdoctoral associate with a focus on computational work related to both methods development and G Protein Coupled Receptor (GPCR) signaling. Applicants with backgrounds in Computational Chemistry, Structural Biology, or Biophysics are preferred, although specific area of expertise is less important than a drive to perform interdisciplinary research at the cutting edge. You must have a Ph.D. from an accredited institution, an excellent publication record, efficient time management skills, and a strong work ethic. Most importantly you must be passionate about solving unanswered questions in membrane protein signaling & drug discovery. You will lead projects, design computational work, and collaborate with other scientists to accomplish research goals, write papers and contribute to grant writing. This position is funded by a generous Cancer Prevention Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT) award.

Baylor College of Medicine is a top tier Medical School and Biosciences Graduate School with a long history of innovation and current leadership in the biomedical sciences. Baylor College of Medicine is located in the center of the world's largest life science complex in the heart of the fourth most populous city in America. It is within walking distance of numerous educational and biomedical research institutions (e.g. Rice University & MD Anderson Cancer Center) as well as parks, zoos, and world-class museums. Houston is the most diverse city in the United States and has a top-rated culinary scene to fill any taste.
