美国卡内基梅隆大学2022年招聘博士后职位（细胞生物物理实验）

Postdoctoral Position in Cell Biophysics Experiment

1.Position Title:

Postdoctoral Position in Cell Biophysics Experiment

2.Location:

Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA

3.Lab introduction:

The Si lab at Carnegie Mellon University is looking for postdoctoral candidates. Our lab’s drive is to discover “biological laws” that can help us understand living systems in a quantitatively precise way. Towards this goal, we develop/adapt tools, do rigorous measurements, and define new concepts. We are currently searching for simple yet fundamental rules connecting the complicated form of bacterial cells and their fitness in different environments. Please check out the lab website for more descriptions of our research: https://sifangwei.github.io/

4.Position Description and Qualifications:

We are mainly looking for candidates that aim for an academic career. We will walk you through the process of transitioning from a postdoc to an independent researcher.

We are particularly interested in candidates that have done cell experiments and have PhD training in broadly defined bio-related areas (e.g., biophysics, microbiology, bioengineering, etc.). Additional experience in molecular biology will be much welcome.

The project(s) related to this position will be quantifying and redesigning the biophysical and physiological properties of bacterial cells using genetics, microscopy, microfluidics, and other multidisciplinary tools to discover quantitative relationships between the cellular organization and cell fitness in different environments.

5.Application Instructions:

To apply, please contact Fangwei Si (fsi@cmu.edu) with a CV and contact information of three references.
