Exempt When you join the growing BILH team, you’re not just taking a job, you’re making a difference in people’s lives. About Us:
The Birrane Lab is located at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School in the Longwood area of Boston, Massachusetts. We have regular access to synchrotron beamlines (NSLS-II, APS) and state-of-the-art cryo-EM facilities at Harvard Medical School and MIT. We are seeking a talented and motivated Postdoctoral Scientist to lead cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and X-ray crystallography studies on proteins involved in the regulation of triglyceride metabolism. This position provides a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research with direct implications for metabolic health. Position Overview:
As a Postdoctoral Fellow, you will be at the forefront of our efforts to understand the structural basis of proteins influencing triglyceride metabolism. You will utilize your expertise in protein expression and purification, X-ray crystallography and/or cryo-EM, and you will play a crucial role in unraveling the molecular mechanisms that underlie the regulation of triglyceride homeostasis. This position offers a stimulating and collaborative environment for scientific exploration. Key Responsibilities
Conduct X-ray crystallography experiments to determine high-resolution structures of proteins involved in triglyceride metabolism. Apply cryo-EM techniques for structural analysis of protein complexes and interactions. Work collaboratively with the research team to design and execute experiments. Analyze and interpret experimental data, contributing to the preparation of scientific publications. Stay abreast of the latest developments in structural biology and lipid metabolism. Preferences
Ph.D. in Structural Biology, Biochemistry, or a related field. Proven expertise in X-ray crystallography and/or cryo-EM techniques. Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills. Effective communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team. Experience in protein expression, purification, and biochemical characterization. Familiarity with software tools for data processing and structure determination. Strong background in proteins related to lipid metabolism or cellular signaling. Track record of successful contributions to peer-reviewed publications. Required Qualifications
Doctoral Degree or M.D. 0-1 year of postdoctoral research experience in academic or industrial lab setting, and/or teaching assistantship in a university setting, and/or residency, and/or clinical duties beyond that of the qualifying doctoral degree. Responsibilities & Expectations

(essential) As a member of the research team, actively pursues research under the supervision of a principal investigator while developing skills for independent work. (essential) Receives training in and performs duties contributing to the investigational work of the team including formulation of research questions and design, conduct of experiments, and evaluation of results. (essential) Prepares and publishes scientific manuscripts under direction of PI. (essential) Develops expertise in desired lab skills/informatics/physics/clinical research. Develops proficiency with research tools and equipment. Develops ability to work with more independence as the fellowship progresses (essential) Develops new ideas that promote current research; brings new expertise to the research program. (essential) Teaching skills and provide supervision of students and their projects when appropriate. (essential) Engages in collaborative meetings with other research groups. Attends and leads scientific seminars. (essential) Learns to identify, acknowledge and correct deficiencies in one\'s own performance. (essential) Under the direction of PI, pursues/secures independent funding near the end of the fellowship. (essential) Skills & Competencies
Decision Making: Ability to make decisions guided by general instructions and practices, with interpretation as needed. Problem Solving: Ability to address varied problems requiring analysis or interpretation. Independence of Action: Ability to follow precedents and procedures; may set priorities within general guidelines. Written Communications: Ability to summarize and communicate complex information in English in varied written formats. Oral Communications: Ability to convey complex information in English to medical center staff, patients, families and external customers. Knowledge: Deep understanding of relevant concepts, practices, and policies. Team Work: Ability to lead collaborative teams across internal and external groups. Customer Service: Provide high level of service and training to meet expectations; resolve issues respectfully and promptly. Physical Nature of the Job: Light work; may require standing or moving about the campus as needed.
