DESCRIPTION:
The Department of Cell & Systems Biology at the University of Toronto invites applications for a Research Associate (Limited Term) for a 2-year appointment. The anticipated start date is January 1, 2027.
The Research Associate will be intrinsically involved in research projects where they contribute, by way of their academic expertise, to the projects directed by the principal investigator Professor Alan Moses. Alan Moses’ research in computational biology aims to understand how genetic regulatory networks are encoded in genome sequences and how they change or stay the same over evolution. One line of research has focused on intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDRs) and how they contribute to protein regulation. The Moses Lab has recently developed the first systematic functional map of human IDRs, utilized protein language models to achieve zero-shot segmentation of functional regions within the human proteome, and launched user-friendly IDR design software called FAIDR-Desi.
The Research Associate will perform projects in the lab of Prof. Alan Moses in the Department of Cell and Systems Biology relating to Intrinsically disordered Protein regions (IDRs), with a focus on development and execution of high-throughput assays for IDR function. We expect that the research associate will generally serve as a leader in lab and research activities.
The Research Associate will also be responsible to 1) assist in supervising undergrads and grad students in working on research projects related to understanding the sequence-to-function relationship in IDRs and 2) assist in defining the direction of research in the lab, including writing of research articles and preparing preliminary data for funding applications related to the project
Applicants should apply online at the link below and include a covering letter, curriculum vitae and three reference names with their contact addresses and phone numbers. Any questions regarding this position should be directed to Prof. Alan Moses at View email address on jobs.utoronto.ca .
