Postdoctoral Position – Cell Biology, Metabolism

University of California Davis School of Medicine

Job Description

A postdoctoral research position is available in cell biology and metabolism at the University of California Davis School of Medicine. We study newly identified genes that control mitochondrial function and adipocyte biology using cell culture models and genetic mouse models. This research is highly relevant to the clinical problems of obesity and diabetes.

We are recruiting talented Ph.D. graduates with interest in an academic career and excellent training in cell biology, biochemistry, or a similar field. It is critical to have strong skills in basic biochemistry and molecular biology techniques such as analysis of protein and gene expression, protein-protein interaction, and gene manipulation in cells. For examples of our recent work, please see the following:

(1) Defective brown adipose tissue thermogenesis and impaired glucose metabolism in mice lacking Letmd1. Cell Reports. 2021; 37: 110104.

(2) Adipose mitochondrial complex I deficiency modulates inflammation and glucose homeostasis in a sex-dependent manner. Endocrinology. 2022; 163(4): bqac018.

(3) CFTR regulates brown adipocyte thermogenesis via the cAMP/PKA signaling pathway. Journal of Cystic Fibrosis. 2022; Sep 7: S1569.

(4) Regulation of beige adipocyte thermogenesis by the cold-repressed ER protein NNAT. Molecular Metabolism. 2023; 69: 101679.

(5) Adipose tissue and metabolic health. Diabetes and Metabolism Journal. 2023; 47: 595.

The lab is located at the main university campus and has access to excellent collaborators, on-site mouse facilities, and research core facility support. This is an opportunity to play a lead role in exciting projects and make original discoveries that have implications for human health. Davis, California is a college town known for pleasant quality of life and sunny weather.
