About this position

Postdoctoral Research Associate position available in the Truman Laboratory at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte for Spring 2027.

The project focuses on the Hsp70 chaperone code and proteostasis, investigating how post-translational modifications regulate molecular chaperones and cellular protein homeostasis. The research combines molecular biology, biochemistry, proteomics, genetics, and cell biology to study protein folding, stress responses, signaling pathways, and disease-associated processes.

Work will span yeast and mammalian model systems and use cutting-edge proteomic and interactome-mapping technologies. This is a strong fit for candidates interested in chaperone biology, protein quality control, post-translational regulation, and mechanistic cell biology.

Eligibility highlights: applicants should have a Ph.D. in biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, or a related field. Experience in protein biochemistry, proteomics, cell signaling, or molecular genetics is desirable. The lab also prefers candidates with prior experience in molecular chaperones and phosphorylation in yeast and/or mammalian cells. A required qualification listed on the lab page is at least one first-author paper in a Q1 journal.

The position offers opportunities for career development, collaboration, and publication in a highly productive research environment. No stipend amount is stated in the post.

Application: use the lab’s open positions page and follow the “Apply Here” link to submit materials.
