Position Summary
The Cameron and Arnold Lab at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Scholar to investigate mechanisms of positive-strand RNA virus genome replication. Specifically the position will use biochemical biophysical and computational methods to understand structure-dynamics-function relationships of viral proteins and addition this position will aim to develop technological advancements of a high-throughput microfluidics-based platform to perform kinetic analysis of viral infections in individual cells to enable use by the broader scientific community. The responsibilities include: (1) design execute and analyze cutting-edge experiments with minimal supervision; (2) collaborate with scientists at UNC or elsewhere to develop new technologies; and (3) contribute substantively to the preparation of manuscripts for publication and presentations at scientific conferences. The postdoc will have the opportunity to collaborate closely with biochemists virologists enzymologists structural biologists microbiologists and bioengineers.
Required Qualifications Competencies And Experience
Experience in membrane protein biochemistry peptide chemistry and computational modeling as demonstrated by a strong track record of publications in these areas.
Preferred Qualifications Competencies And Experience
Extensive expertise in diverse protein chemistry synthetic chemistry biophysics computational and structural modeling including molecular dynamics simulations protein design data visualization and analytical techniques including optical spectroscopy and microscopy techniques including fluorescence microscopy (e.g. quantitative live cell imaging).
