6 days ago


Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States Harvard University Full time

Are you a motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher looking for a new challenge? We invite applications for a postdoctoral position in the Gozzi Lab at the Rowland Institute at Harvard.

Company Overview

The Gozzi Lab is a dynamic and interdisciplinary research group focused on understanding how microbes adapt to their ever-changing environment. Our primary goal is to characterize gene transfer agent diversity, regulation, and species-specificity across the Tree of Life.

We aim to achieve this by studying how bacteria constantly face a life-and-death struggle against lethal stresses in their microscopic world. Using simple and complex survival strategies, we hope to deeply understand how bacteria react and respond to stress and use this knowledge to engineer useful functions in bacteria.

Salary

The estimated salary for this position is $55,000-$65,000 per year, commensurate with experience.

Job Description

As a postdoctoral researcher in the Gozzi Lab, you will have the opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in microbiology and molecular biology. You will work closely with our team to design and execute experiments, analyze data, and present results at scientific conferences.

Our ideal candidate will have a strong background in microbiology and molecular biology, with experience in bacterial husbandry, cloning, genetics, microscopy/biological imaging, and/or protein biochemistry. A strong publication record in microbiology/molecular biology demonstrating these skills is highly preferred.

  • Bacterial husbandry and manipulation
  • Cloning and genetic engineering
  • Microscopy and biological imaging
  • Protein biochemistry and purification
Benefits

Harvard University offers a competitive benefits package, including comprehensive health insurance, retirement savings plans, and paid time off.

Others

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, gender identity, sexual orientation, pregnancy and pregnancy-related conditions or any other characteristic protected by law.
