Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The role involves conducting research on the molecular biology of arthropods, focusing on transgenic manipulation and gene transduction technologies. Responsibilities include designing experiments, writing publications, and training graduate and undergraduate students.
Applicants must hold a Ph.D. or equivalent doctorate in a relevant field. Experience in molecular biology techniques such as CRISPR/Cas9, cloning, or bioinformatics is required.
Approval of remote and hybrid work is not guaranteed regardless of work location. For additional information on remote work at Penn State, see Notice to Out of State Applicants.
This is a term position; length of the term will be discussed during the interview process. Continuation past the term length discussed will be based on university need, performance, and/or availability of funding.
The Rasgon lab at The Pennsylvania State University is hiring multiple Postdoctoral Scholars to join our lab to work on a variety of projects related to the molecular biology of arthropods. Successful candidates will contribute to projects developing novel methods for transgenic manipulation of arthropods, developing novel gene transduction technologies for basic and applied goals, and developing model systems to study the evolutions and mechanisms of arthropod symbiosis.
Candidates must have experience in one or more of the following areas, including but not limited to cloning, construct design, CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, PCR/qPCR, protein expression and purification using bacterial or yeast systems, protein techniques, receptor-ligand interactions, bioinformatics, virology, work with BSL2 and BSL3-level pathogens, and artificial vector infections with pathogens. Experience working with mosquitoes is preferred but not required.
Candidates will also be responsible for designing experiments, laboratory research, writing proposals and publications, training graduate students, undergraduate students, and technical staff. Candidates must be able to work independently and in a collaborative team environment.
Applicants are required to have a Ph.D. or equivalent doctorate in an appropriate field and be able to provide evidence that all requirements have been met for completion of the Ph.D. prior to the effective date of hire.
Interested candidates must submit an online application at Penn State’s Job Posting Board, and should upload the following application materials electronically: CV and a list of three references with contact information.
This position will be located at Penn State in University Park, Pennsylvania. It is full-time in person (no remote work).
