Postdoctoral Position, Brandeis University, MA, USA – Reconstituted Active Matter
The Duclos Lab (Brandeis University) is recruiting an experimental postdoctoral researcher to work on the self-organization of reconstituted actin networks. Our lab studies active biological matter using a combination of in vitro reconstitution, quantitative imaging, and physical modeling to uncover the principles that govern pattern formation in reconstituted cytoskeleton.
This position is part of a collaborative, multi-university project with MIT, UCSF, Boston University, and George Washington University, offering strong opportunities for interdisciplinary research and collaboration.
We are looking for candidates who have:
A PhD in biophysics, soft matter physics, biochemistry, or a related field
Strong experimental skills
Interest in active matter, cytoskeletal systems, or biological physics
(Preferred) experience with in vitro reconstitution or microscopy.
What we offer:
An interdisciplinary and collaborative research environment
Access to a broad network of leading groups across institutions
Flexibility to help shape the direction of the project
Our lab is located in the Physics Department of Brandeis University, in Waltham, a suburb of Boston, MA, USA.
