Postdoc Position in Transcellular Chaperone Signaling in Aging and Disease

The project uses C. elegans as a model system, single-cell sequencing, and proteomics to study molecular mechanisms underlying transcellular stress signaling between organs during aging to safeguard organismal proteostasis. You will have previous expertise in C. elegans biology, molecular biology, and genetics, as well as strong computational skills. You will join an interdisciplinary team of researchers in the Proteostasis Group at UNC Charlotte.

NIH funding is available for several years. Ideal candidates will have graduated less than 1 year from the start date.
