Research Fellow Jobs in West Carson, CA

The laboratory of Dr. Shasha Chong in the Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, CA, is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral research fellow. The Chong Lab studies the interaction behaviors and functions of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), including their phase separation behaviors. We are interested in understanding how IDPs play roles in transcriptional regulation and other processes in mammalian cells in the context of physiology and disease, including different forms of cancer. We use highly interdisciplinary approaches in our research, including quantitative single-cell and single-molecule imaging, molecular and cell biology, biochemistry, genetics, proteomics, and bioinformatics. The postdoctoral fellow will have the opportunity to participate in diverse projects and collaborate with labs in and outside Caltech. Applicants with interest are welcome to explore the selected works published by the Chong Lab and by Dr. Shasha Chong before coming to Caltech.
