Postdoctoral position in biomolecular modeling and computer-aided drug discovery
The Miao Lab at the Center for Computational Biology, University of Kansas
(https://compbio.ku.edu) is looking for a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to work
on biomolecular modeling and computer-aided drug discovery. Projects in the lab involve
computer-aided drug discovery, method development for enhanced simulations of
biomolecular recognition, and multiscale modeling of cellular signaling processes
(https://miao.compbio.ku.edu). In collaboration with leading experimentalists, the new
postdoc will have the opportunity to work on unprecedented simulations and drug design
of membrane proteins, which are extremely important targets for treating Alzheimers
disease and human cancers.

The ideal candidate is expected to have strong publication record in biomolecular
modeling and computational biophysics/chemistry. Programming skills (e.g., bash
scripting, python and Fortran/C++), expertise in computational modeling (such as
molecular dynamics simulations, virtual screening and free energy calculations), and
successful experimental collaboration experience are preferred.

Applications are accepted until the position is filled as soon as January 2019 or later. The
initial appointment is for one year and the contract is renewable upon satisfactory
research progress. Salary and benefits will be based on experience, in compliance with
KU and NIH standards.

KU is an EO/AAE, full policy https://policy.ku.edu/IOA/nondiscrimination.
To apply, please send a detailed curriculum vitae, a cover letter and the names and
contact information for three (3) references to Yinglong Miao at miao++ku.edu. 返回小木虫查看更多
