Description

A postdoctoral position is available in the Lim laboratory in the Department of Integrative Biology at UC, Berkeley (http://ib.berkeley.edu/labs/lim/). The project will examine genetic switches and circuits involved in bacterial pathogenesis. In particular, we are interested in the role of genetic and environmental noise in determining the fate of individual cells during the infection process. The project will involve quantitative experiments using fluorescent reporters and the construction of synthetic genetic circuits. The project may also include theoretical and computational modeling depending on the applicant’s interests and abilities. This work will be performed in partnership with labs in the Departments of Bioengineering and Public Health at UC Berkeley. A Ph.D. is required in molecular and cellular biology, bioengineering, biophysics, biochemistry or related fields.

The appointment will be for 12 months with the possibility for renewal. The annual salary range for this position will be commensurate with experience. The position is available immediately and applications will be reviewed until the position is filled. The University of California, Berkeley is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
