The Chan Zuckerberg Biohub ("CZ Biohub) is a nonprofit medical research organization based in the San Francisco Bay Area, operating in partnership with UCSF, UC Berkeley and Stanford University. Our mission is to understand the fundamental mechanisms underlying disease and to develop new technologies that will lead to actionable diagnostics and effective therapies. We harness the power and possibility of collaboration to drive discovery and set the standard for open, impactful science. For more information, please visit czbiohub.org.
As part of a new intramural collaborative effort that spans our Cell Atlas, Infectious Disease, and Technology Initiatives, we seek to comprehensively map how human cells get hijacked and remodeled during viral infection. In this context, we are investing resources and talent in cell biology, live-cell microscopy, biochemistry and genome engineering. One of our goals is to contribute open-source curated datasets that can be re-used by the entire community (see for example https://opencell.czbiohub.org/).
This role will be a key collaborator embedded in our Intracellular Architecture and Mass Spectrometry Platform groups. This is a great opportunity to be part of a collegial multi-disciplinary team that combines genomics, high-throughput live cell imaging, mass-spec proteomics/metabolomics and robotics to decipher disease mechanisms.
Opportunity
We are seeking a Scientist to help establish an experimental and analytical proteomics pipeline to map how viruses remodel infected human cells and dissect associated molecular mechanisms (BSL-2 viral models). In collaboration with others at the Biohub, you will:
