Develops leadership and management skills.Receives/Reviews progress and evaluates results of experiments or projects under control or supervisory responsibility.Recommends changes in research, testing or experimental procedures.May be responsible for a single highly technical and complex piece of research equipment.May review and evaluate the effectiveness of personnel.May plan for and assign personnel to projects under control.Operates with latitude for unreviewed action.May receive general supervision conferring with higher levels only in unusual situations.Performs other job-related duties as required.Additional Job Posting Information
This postdoctoral position is to study protein posttranslational modification in human breast cancer with a NIH-NCI funded lab in the Department of Biology & Biochemistry at the University of Houston. Specifically, the Bawa-Khalfe team is focused on the development of therapeutic strategies to restore aberrant ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like SUMO modification systems using multiple
in vivo
and
ex vivo
breast models. The postdoctoral fellow should have experience in protein biochemistry, pharmacology, medium/high-throughput drug screens, transcriptome analysis, and breast cancer biology. Ideally, the individual should have working knowledge of techniques/methods to detect ubiquitin/SUMO modifications on a single protein substrate and proteome screens.Postdoctoral scholars work independently with variable hours and days required to complete laboratory experiments/tasks. Prior to start, the postdoctoral fellow will work with Dr. Bawa-Khalfe to initiate an Individual Development Plan (IDP); the IDP will be used to align goals, define expectations, and evaluate the progress of the scholar.Additional Duties
