Postdoc Position at University of Colorado
University of Colorado School of Medicine
I am seeking a motivated, independent, creative entry level post-doctoral researcher to join my laboratory at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. My lab is interested in understanding the molecular mechanism of pre-mRNA splicing and its role in disease processes, using a combination of structural (cryoEM and crystallography), biochemical, molecular biology, and cell biology approaches. Below are examples of our recent publications:
CryoEM structure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae U1 snRNP offers insight into alternative splicing. Nat Commun. 2017; 8:1035. PMID 29051543.
Structure of the yeast spliceosomal postcatalytic P complex. Science. 2017; 358:1278-1283. PMID 29146870.
A unified mechanism for intron and exon definition and back-splicing. Nature. 2019; 573: 375-380. PMID 31485080.
My lab is located on the University of Colorado Denver Anschutz Medical Campus within the highly collegial Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics and is part of the RNA BioScience Initiative. Denver is a great place to live and to do research. To apply, please send an email with a cover letter summarizing past research accomplishments, research interest, long term plans, and start date availability; CV; and contact information of three references to Rui.Zhao@cuanschutz.edu.

Postdoctoral position
National Cancer Institute
A postdoctoral position is available in Sandra Wolin’s laboratory at the National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, in Frederick, Maryland.
We study how noncoding RNAs function, the RNA surveillance pathways that remove defective and harmful RNAs and the mechanisms by which defects in RNA decay pathways contribute to diseases such as cancer and autoimmunity. A major focus of our studies are noncoding RNA-protein complexes called Ro60 RNPs.
A more complete description of our science can be found at the link above.

Postdoc position in Pai Lab at UMass Medical School
University of Massachusetts Medical School
The Pai lab at UMass Medical School in Worcester, MA is seeking a postdoctoral candidate in the field of RNA biology and functional genomics with relevant experience in experimental and/or computational biology! Our research combines high-dimensional computational analyses with state-of-the-art genetic, molecular, and cellular genomic techniques to probe the molecular mechanisms of RNA maturation (including transcription, splicing, and 3’ end processing). Ideal applicants will have a strong background in RNA biology, functional genomics, systems biology, or computational biology/bioinformatics. We desire a candidate with both experimental and computational skills, but encourage applications from scientists motivated to expand their skillset to include both approaches. Applicants must be self-motivated, creative, and able to work in a highly collaborative and interdisciplinary environment. To apply, please email the following to Athma Pai at athma.pai@umassmed.edu: 1) Curriculum vitae, including complete list of publications and pre-prints. 2) Contact information for three referees 3) Summary of your present research and outline of your future research interests (1 page max). http://pai-lab.org/images/PaiPostdocAd_2018.jpg

Postdoc Opportunity in San Francisco
McManus Lab
EED Scholar positions are available in the McManus lab. ImageThis is a vibrant multidisciplinary environment with the research resources and space to create your own path towards independency. The diversity of our scientific program and publications is a self-evident reflection of the scientific freedom our trainees have, and the incredible opportunities for collaboration. In many ways, our postdoc positions are similar to 'special fellows' positions that provide freedom, funding, and resources in a highly supportive environment. The McManus Lab combines multiple fields of genetics, synthetic biology, and systems biology to explore connections to human development and disease, and uncover fundamental science. Computational, engineering, molecular biology backgrounds are highly encouraged to apply.
Computational Scientist. The McManus lab is seeking a computational scientist with an emphasis on machine learning and quantitative biology. Post-doctoral applicants should have a PhD or equivalent in computer science or related areas and capable of analyzing large datasets. The ideal candidate should have a strong publication record, a strong knowledge of basic biology, and enjoy working in a team setting.
Postdoctoral Scholar positions are available in the McManus lab. In addition to the SEED Scholar opportunity above, we have other postdoctoral positions that are funded by our research grants. In this setting you could immediately join a team working on existing research endeavors, helping you to jumpstart your own research program during your first year. In some cases, this plan makes sense when you don't have a definitive research idea that you are ready to develop yet but would like sheltered time to learn and explore. Ultimately, all of our trainees are are encouraged to develop their own independent programs (see alumni), specifically programs that they take with them to start their own labs.
