Postdoctoral Associate - Droujinine Lab - Molecular & Cellular Biology
The Scripps Research InstituteSan Diego, CA
ABOUT US: Scripps Research is a nonprofit biomedical institute ranked as one of the most influential in the world for its impact on innovation. We are celebrating our 100-year legacy. This significant milestone marks a century of seminal discoveries in immunology, infectious diseases (such as COVID-19, flu, HIV), neuroscience, heart disease, cancer, and more. Located in La Jolla, California, the institute houses six research departments, multiple Nobel laureates, a top-ranked graduate school and a leading postdoctoral training program.

Together, we cultivate new scientific leaders and expand the frontiers of knowledge to deliver medical breakthroughs impacting human health around the globe. If you have a passion for making a difference, this could be your opportunity to join our transformative team. Celebrating a Century: https://100.scripps.edu/ POSITION TITLE: Postdoctoral Associate POSITION SUMMARY: We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Associate. Ideal candidate will lead their own project, and perform mammalian cell culture, in vivo mouse experiments, in vivo genetic screens, quantitative TMT mass spectrometry proteomics, metabolomics, western blot, pulldowns, DNA cloning, immunostaining, confocal microscopy, high throughput screens, and bioinformatic data analysis. Significant emphasis is placed on the professional development of the Postdoctoral Associate. More information on the project will be discussed during the interview process. Lab Project Overview: To maintain homeostasis, organisms rely on internal signaling networks that orchestrate the physiological response across different tissues and organs. Intriguingly, perturbation in one tissue elicits secreted signals that transmit the information to other tissues and that these signals are important for maintenance of health and longevity. Secreted proteins are key components of interorgan signaling that coordinate organ functions by signaling over long distances. Destabilization of these interorgan signaling networks, responsible for the orchestration of physiological responses across organs, drives age-associated disease, including diabetes, cancer, or chronic inflammation. Despite this, the composition and activity of interorgan communication networks and their impact on aging and disease remain poorly defined. The Droujinine Lab has developed novel methods to identify and characterize novel secreted factors that coordinate organ functions in homeostasis and disease in mammalian systems. Specifically, we use proteomics and in vivo functional genomic screens to uncover the secreted proteins and cellular circuitry involved in homeostasis, obesity, and aging.
