About the Ren Research Group and University of North Carolina Charlotte
Dr. Xiaojun Ren is the Irwin Belk Distinguished Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNC Charlotte). Before joining UNC Charlotte in August 2024, he served as a faculty member at the University of Colorado Denver.

Ren's laboratory is a leader in epigenetic regulation research. His team was the first to show that Polycomb group (PcG) proteins form condensates via liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) (Tatavosian et al., JBC, 2019; Brown et al., Cell Reports, 2023; Kent et al., Cell Reports, 2020). The lab has also pioneered live-cell single-molecule tracking techniques to investigate the dynamics of epigenetic factors in vivo (Kent et al., Cell Reports, 2020; Tatavosian et al., Nature Communications, 2018; Zhen et al., eLife, 2016).

UNC Charlotte, a public research university located in Charlotte, North Carolina, is recognized for its academic excellence. In the 2024 U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges rankings, it was ranked #81 among public universities and is on track to achieve R1 research university status in 2025.

Charlotte, the largest city in North Carolina and the 15th-most populous in the U.S., has seen substantial growth due to economic opportunities, a thriving tech sector, and a relatively low cost of living.

Application Instructions
Please submit the following to Dr. Xiaojun Ren (xren2@charlotte.edu). Applications will be reviewed immediately until the position is filled.
•        Cover letter.
•        A detailed CV/resume.
•        Contact information for two or three references.
