We strive to deliver the best in patient care, research, and education. Experience amazing opportunities and outstanding rewards with the University of Miami, Miller School of Medicine.
This position is eligible for a $500 Employee Referral Bonus consistent with the University policy.
The Postdoctoral Associate will be part of the Cardiac Signal Transduction and Cellular Biology Laboratory and participate in current research which asks how the information of multimolecular protein complexes confers specificity in intracellular signaling. A major focus of the lab has been the mAKAP signalosome that facilitates crosstalk between cAMP, calcium and MAP-kinase signaling pathways and that is important for the induction of myocyte hypertrophy. Other interests include the identification of novel scaffolds for the phosphatase calcineurin.
A wide range of techniques are being used to address these questions including the biochemical analysis of recombinant proteins in vitro, tranfection of primary cardiac myocyte cultures, live cell imaging and the generation of mutant mice models. Candidates will be required to get involved in the experiments and gather data.
Minimum qualifications include a Ph.D. or equivalent. Enthusiastic individuals with experience in molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology or cardiac physiology are encouraged to apply. Candidates with two to three years of experience preferred. An appropriate combination of relevant education, experience and/or certifications will be considered.
Discover all this and countless opportunities that reward your talent. The University of Miami, Miller School of Medicine is proud to offer those who lead with us competitive salaries, medical and dental benefits, tuition remission, vacation, university paid holidays and much more.
