Postdoctoral Research Associate - Marsico Lung Institute

characterization of mucins and their quantitation using light scattering and labeled mass spectrometry-based quantitation technologies. Our laboratory at the Marsico Lung Institute is one of the best-equipped and most focused mucin/mucus biochemistry and biophysics innate immunity laboratories in the USA . As such, it will provide the selected candidate with a unique opportunity to develop new skills and apply them to fundamental questions in innate lung defense. Education and Experience: Postdoc should have experience in biochemistry, plus hands-on experience with the quantitation of macromolecules and the internal and external quality control and validation of such measurements. Postdoc should have excellent oral and written communication and organizational skills, as well as the ability to get along with co-workers and faculty in multi-disciplinary research teams. Postdoc should have a demonstrated record of scientific productivity and be capable of working independently while collaborating closely with the principal investigator.
