Job Description:
The Harris Lab is seeking a motivated postdoctoral researcher to investigate structure and function of macromolecular complexes involved in deubiquitination pathways. You are a creative problem-solver, energized and enthusiastic to pursue challenging, impactful scientific questions. We anticipate combining protein crystallography, cryo-electron microscopy (CryoEM), and bioinformatics to examine diverse size scales of these multi-protein complexes and to determine themes and variations in the enzymatic regulation and specificity of deubiquitinases and their partner proteins. With regular access to state-of-the-art synchrotron facilities and a newly established cryo-EM laboratory, Genentech’s Structural Biology department provides a well-resourced, strongly collaborative environment to pursue cutting-edge publication-oriented research in the context of world-class applied science and therapeutic development. Further bolstered by the collegial postdoctoral fellows program at Genentech, this creates an exciting environment for the engaged and productive scientist.

Who You Are:

Applicants should hold a Ph.D. in a field related to biochemistry, biophysics, structural biology, or bioinformatics with wet lab experience. The ideal candidate will have expertise in protein biochemistry and crystallography while also being well-versed in computational methods applied to data handling and analyses.
