As a postdoctoral fellow in Professor Ashim Rai's lab at Ahmedabad University, you will be conducting experimental research focused on the biophysics of Salmonella-host cytoskeleton interactions. The research project aims to uncover the molecular mimicry mechanisms employed by Salmonella pathogenic factors to manipulate host cell cytoskeletal networks. Your role will involve designing and executing experiments using interdisciplinary approaches such as reconstitution biology, fluorescence spectroscopy, and DNA nanotechnology. Proficiency in fluorescence microscopy and spectroscopy is essential for this position. Your responsibilities will include designing and conducting experiments in cytoskeletal research, analyzing a diverse range of experimental data, preparing manuscripts for publication, writing grants for research funding, and mentoring PhD and undergraduate students. You will be expected to leverage your expertise in protein expression and purification using bacterial and insect cell systems, as well as your experience in time-lapse fluorescence imaging and the use of a fluorescence spectrophotometer. The ideal candidate for this role should hold a PhD degree in Biochemistry or Biophysics with a strong publication record in high-impact peer-reviewed journals. Prior experience in cytoskeletal biology would be advantageous. Ahmedabad University is committed to providing a research-driven and project-based learning environment within the Division of Biological and Life Sciences. If you are a motivated and self-driven individual with a passion for biophysics research, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity. Please submit your CV and cover letter to Professor Ashim Rai via email at ashim.rai@ahduni.edu.in. Duration of the position: 36 months.,
