Postdoctoral Associate (Canary Lab)

Applications are invited for an individual to be appointed as a postdoctoral associate under the supervision of Professor James Canary. The research will focus on DNA-based materials science, including either developing DNA-based catalysts through bioconjugation or creating materials for electronic and catalytic applications. Experience with organic materials synthesis and bioconjugation chemistry is preferred but not required.

The employment terms, which are for one year with a possible renewal, include a competitive salary and other benefits. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and candidates will be considered until the position is filled. This position is based in New York and the selected candidate will be expected to work onsite as of their effective start date.
