A postdoctoral position is available at UCLA to study the molecular mechanisms of novel therapeutic targets. We seek a highly motivated individual with a Ph.D. in biochemistry, cell biology or related fields. Prior experience with mass spectrometry or mouse models is preferred, but not required.
We are interested in the discovery and mechanistic study of cell-surface receptors for orphan ligands of biological and medical interest. Receptors are among the most successful therapeutic targets in treating human diseases. Our research is not driven by a particular technique, but employs a range of techniques to answer important questions (e.g., mass spectrometry for discovery-driven projects, high-throughput screening for drug discovery, and animal models for in vivo validation). For example, our research team has developed innovative techniques to identify small molecule modulators of the new type of transmembrane receptors we discovered. A recent example is a new screening technique that can identify chemical compounds that mimic the actions of a protein that has broad therapeutic value in treating major blinding diseases and several types of cancer.
