We seek two highly motivated individuals to contribute to our research program focused on the proteomic characterization of animal venoms using state-of-the-art mass spectrometry techniques. Prospective individuals will join a productive team utilizing bioanalytical methods to answer complex questions on the biochemistry of venom proteins and their role in health and disease. The position requires strong motivation and commitment, analytical skills, attention to detail, software & computer capabilities, and an emphasis on communication and interpersonal skills. The position requires the ability to work independently on multiple projects concurrently while maintaining a high level of quality control. Successful candidates will have an opportunity for authorship on original manuscripts based on their work. Candidates with a strong background in molecular biology, protein biochemistry, bioinformatics, and computational biology are highly encouraged to apply. Those highly interested in herpetology and venomous snake biology are also encouraged to apply. The position will be for one year with the possibility of extension.

Onsite – this role is expected to work onsite and is located in Aurora, CO.

Our department conducts research across a wide biological scale for fundamental scientific understanding with applications to many disease contexts. The overarching goal is to reach a level of molecular insight that helps develop therapeutic approaches to disease. As biochemists and molecular geneticists, we are amid an unprecedented time of discovery - our conception of the molecular biology of cells is going from the equivalent of grainy black-and-white to high-resolution technicolor. From deciphering the choreography of transcription complexes, chromosomes, and RNA molecules within cells to developing novel approaches to 3D molecular structure determination to understanding how viruses hijack a cell's machinery and alter its metabolome, the researchers in Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics (BMG) are at the forefronts of their fields both conceptually and technologically.
