Two post-doctoral associate positions are immediately available for an NIH Pioneer Award-funded project to study hybrid organic-inorganic devices designed to produce energy by means of scaffolded metabolic pathways. Based on a biomimetic strategy, studies will incorporate cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, nanofabrication, and bioengineering to produce energy-generating platforms for implantable medical devices. Effective written and verbal communication skills are essential for participating in our multi-disciplinary team.

Qualifications: Ph.D. in a related field. Experience with molecular biology, recombinant protein generation, enzyme biochemistry, surface attachment chemistry, and/or protein patterning are desired. Salary will be commensurate with experience. Strong work ethic, creativity, and enthusiasm required.

Please provide curriculum vitae, letter of application, and contact information for 3 references to Dr. Alexander Travis (ajt32@cornell.edu).
