About The Position

We're looking to recruit a postdoc to our new lab at the RNA Therapeutics Institute. We study how RNA folding shapes gene expression, evolution, and disease by applying high-throughput experimental approaches (massively parallel assays, library design & construction, RNA structure probing, ...). The Schärfen lab uses high-throughput experimental and computational methods to study causes and consequences of RNA structure formation. Our approaches are drawn from fields including genomics, data science, systems biology, and biochemistry. We study RNA structure mainly in vivo, using E. coli, yeast, and tissue culture cells as model systems.

Requirements

• PhD
• Experienced wet-lab scientists who want to develop ambitious high-throughput experiments at the interface of biochemistry, genomics, and computation.
