<p class="MsoNormal">Postdoctoral positions are available in Chang Liu group in the Department of Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry at the Johns Hopkins University, a private research and education institute with an excellent research environment and superb
research facilities. We study RAG recombinase genome-wide targeting and coronavirus-host interactions using a combination of structural biology (cryo-EM, cryo-ET, and X-ray crystallography), single-molecule biophysics, protein-nucleic acid biochemistry, genomics,
and cell biology (related publications: Liu C, et al. <b><i>Nature</i></b> (2019); Liu C, et al.
<b><i>Science</i></b> (2021); Liu C, et al. <b><i>Nat Rev Immunol</i></b> (2021)). We are seeking highly motivated postdoctoral applicants with strong expertise in structural biology, virology, immunology, molecular biology, cell biology, or a related field.
The salary rate follows NIH and JHU guidelines.<o:p></o:p></p>
