MCW: SARGEANT HEALTH CENTER Postdoctoral Researcher in MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin
JOB REQUIREMENTS: Position Description: Every day, in ways both big and small, the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) is impacting lives for the better. MCW ... changemaking for a healthier Wisconsin. In the role of Postoctoral Researcher you will be working in Biophysics.Who We Are The Marinelli Lab at MCW\'s Biophysics Department explores how cells function at a molecular level, focusing on membrane transport, signaling, and morphological changes. This research relies on state-of-the-art and novel computer simulation methods, rooted in statistical mechanics and machine-learning. Methodological developments constitute an integral part of the lab research agenda and encompass advanced computational approaches to integrate molecular modeling and wet-lab experiments. A hallmark of the lab work, both in understanding mechanisms and developing methods, is its synergistic collaboration with wet-lab researchers. The lab uses this interdisciplinary approach to advance our understanding of proteins and cellular membranes across molecular and supramolecular scales, aiding the discovery of new therapies against diseases. For more information, see www.mcw.edu/Biophysics.Purpose The Marinelli Lab is offering a Postdoctoral Researcher position to develop advanced computational methods for studying biomolecular systems. The role involves designing innovative machine learning techniques to integrate molecular simulations with experimental data, such as DEER, HDX-MS, NMR, and EM, and may include advancing enhanced sampling and analysis techniques. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to apply these methods to investigate mechanisms of membrane proteins and their interactions with the lipid bilayer, particularly in the contexts of infectious diseases, drug resistance, and cancer. The role includes contributing to the execution and design of research projects in this area, collaborate with experimental partners, analyze data, present findings at scientific meetings, and prepare manuscripts for peer-reviewed publication. The lab is committed to providing a rich learning experience while supporting professional growth and transition to career independence. The position offers a competitive compensation salary aligned with National Institutes of Health (NIH) standards, along with healthcare and other benefits.Resources Lab members have access to both dedicated and shared high-performance computing resources, including advanced GPU servers reserved for the lab, through the MCW Research Computing Center.
