I am searching for a full-time postdoctoral scholar to join my lab at the Emory Eye Center in Atlanta, Georgia!  This position is well-suited to candidates with an enthusiastic interest in bioenergetics. We use mass spectrometry-based metabolomics and stable isotope tracing to understand the metabolic paths that are most active in the retina and retinal pigment epithelium. Our goal is to determine the extent to which changes in energy metabolism (glycolysis, mitochondrial function, etc.) cause retinal degeneration in mouse models of retinitis pigmentosa and age-related macular degeneration. We hope to distinguish ourselves by providing the field...

Emory University invites applications for the endowed Tarbutton Interdisciplinary Science Fellowships appointed for a term of up to three years. These fellowships support outstanding postdoctoral scientists pursuing research that bridges the disciplines of physics, biology, chemistry, mathematics, and/or computer science. The program was inaugurated in 2022 with the aim of fostering Emory’s continued growth as a national leader in interdisciplinary sciences, and in particular in theoretical approaches to living systems. Fellows will be supervised by one or more faculty members from the Emory College of Arts and Sciences (ECAS),...

One Post-Doctoral Research Fellow position is available immediately under the guidance of Dr. Yong Teng at Department of Hematology and Medical Oncology to study molecular basis underpinning the new links among cancer metastasis, metabolism, and immunity. Using animal models (e.g., orthotopic and PDX models, transgenic mice) along with functional genomics (e.g., CRISPR-Cas9 or shRNA lentivirus) and unbiased big data, the Post-Doctoral Fellow will work in a NIH-funded laboratory to understand and reverse the molecular mechanisms involved in tumor progression and treatment resistance. The successful applicants will also be dedicated to developing novel anticancer strategies and combination therapy to...

A postdoctoral position is available at the Emory University School of Medicine to join a laboratory that studies the mechanisms of enveloped virus entry into cells and its regulation by host factors. Our group combines molecular/cell biology, and quantitative microscopy techniques, such as single particle tracking and super-resolution imaging, to investigate the early steps of infection – membrane fusion, transport, uncoating of viral core and late stages of infection. To gain structural insights into virus entry, we employ correlative light-cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-CLEM) techniques. A candidate will work with a collaborative interdisciplinary team on delineating the mechanism by which host factors IFITM3 and...
