[phenixbb] Postdoc position in structural biology at UT Health San Antonio

[Yogesh Gupta]

*Postdoctoral Fellow position at UT Health School of Medicine, San Antonio,
Texas*


The laboratory of Dr. Yogesh Gupta (http://ccri.uthscsa.edu/YGupta.html) at
the University of Texas Health at San Antonio is seeking an enthusiastic
Postdoctoral Fellow to study structures and function of RNA modification
and chromatin remodeling complexes. We use structural biology (X-ray, NMR,
cryo-EM) and cell-based methods to address basic mechanistic questions in
viral pathogenesis and pediatric cancers. Gupta laboratory provides a rich
multi-disciplinary training environment and access to cutting-edge
technologies in structural biology and drug development.
