Dear Colleagues,

The Feng Laboratory at Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute
in San Diego invites applications for a highly motivated and passionate
Postdoctoral Fellow to join our research team. Our laboratory is dedicated
to uncovering the structural and functional mechanisms of disease-related
membrane proteins and protein complexes, with a particular focus on
endogenous ion channels.

The Postdoctoral Fellow will:
Employ cryo-EM to determine high-resolution structures of membrane protein
complexes.
Apply a broad range of biochemical and biophysical approaches to
investigate protein function and elucidate structure–function relationships.

The successful candidate will become an integral member of a collaborative
and supportive research environment, with extensive opportunities for
professional development, interdisciplinary collaboration, and scientific
growth. Researchers have access to state-of-the-art core facilities on
campus, including cryo-EM instrumentation (Titan Krios/K3 and Tecnai T12),
biophysics facilities, protein expression and purification resources, and
other advanced research infrastructure. This fully funded position offers
an excellent opportunity to pursue sustained, high-impact research, develop
expertise in structural and functional biology, and generate strong
publications.

Job Requirements:
A PhD in biochemistry, biophysics, structural biology, neuroscience, or a
related field.
Experience in cryo-EM imaging and data processing is required.
Experience in protein expression and purification, electrophysiological
recording, or computational biology is advantageous.
