Job Description
The department of Biology is a large unified department with strong undergraduate degrees nationally ranked graduate programs and world-class research spanning the breadth of biological questions and experimental systems from ecosystems to microbiology and developmental biology from evolution to cell biology from molecular biology to systems biology bioinformatics and genomics. It is always an exciting time for Biology enormous advances in global genome analysis coupled with unprecedented developments in interdisciplinary research have made the 21st century the Century of Biology. For more information about the department you can find it here: About: Department of Biology: Indiana University Bloomington. TWO POSTDOCTORAL POSITIONS AVAILABLE TO DISCOVER AND CHARACTERIZE A NEW CLASS OF PHOTORECEPTORS IN MARINE CYANOBACTERIA Two positions are available for Postdoctoral Fellows in the laboratory of Dr. David Kehoe in the Department of Biology at Indiana University Bloomington to identify and characterize novel photoreceptors in marine Synechococcus using CRISPR and protein biochemistry approaches. This project is funded by the NSF Systems and Synthetic Biology Program and builds on our successful initial studies of Type 4 Chromatic Acclimation (CA4) as described in publications in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA and Annual Review of Microbiology . Briefly this project will focus on determining the photoreceptor properties of two unique proteins identified as master regulators of CA4. including the chromophores involved and these proteins DNA binding characteristics.
