Project Scientist
NSF Center for Genetically Encoded Materials POSITION DESCRIPTION The NSF Center for Genetically Encoded Materials (C-GEM) is seeking a Project Scientist at UC Berkeley to contribute to a spectacular interdisciplinary col... laboration focused on expanding the chemical and functional potential of the proteome. The successful applicant will play key roles in the design, synthesis, structural analysis, evolution, and/or application of next-gen materials and biologics prepared in cells using the translational apparatus as a molecular catalyst. The position is affiliated with the Schepartz laboratory (Departments of Chemistry and Molecular and Cellular Biology) and offers unlimited opportunity to engage with all C-GEM members.
This position involves the design and execution of experiments, as well as data management, data analysis, manuscript preparation, oral presentations, and contributions to grant proposals and progress reports. It offers extensive opportunities for mentorship of undergraduates, graduate students, and post-baccalaureate researchers, as well as public outreach through community and citizen science programs.
The Schepartz lab is a multidisciplinary and diverse environment with a long-standing interest in the therapeutic potential and cellular delivery of peptides, proteins, and protein-like biomaterials. We welcome scientists regardless of background, race, religion, age, disability status, veteran status, sexual orientation, or gender, and we work to ensure that all individuals are championed and defended.

Postdoctoral Fellow
Cornell University The Alabi lab at Cornell University's School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering is currently looking for a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to join our collaborative tea... m. This exciting opportunity involves working on two innovative projects. The first project focuses on the development of groundbreaking antimicrobial antibody conjugates to combat infectious diseases. The second project aims to enable targeted protein degradation in cells using chimeric peptides delivered through ionizable lipid nanoparticles.
We are accepting applications for this position until it is filled, and the start date is flexible, ranging from August to December 2023. As a successful applicant, you will play a crucial role in the research process. Your responsibilities will include synthesizing peptides using SPSS, creating protein bioconjugates, conducting (bio)analytical characterizations, and performing in vivo studies on small vertebrate animals to validate the effectiveness of the bioconjugates.
We are seeking candidates who possess independent thinking skills and have a strong drive for learning and discovery. Joining our lab will provide you with an excellent opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in the field of chemistry, chemical biology, and biomolecular engineering.
