2. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Research will focus on the biology of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), using multidisciplinary approaches, including proteomics, biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology, genomics and advanced live-cell imaging. We are interested in identifying and characterizing proteins necessary for the functional homeostasis of the ER.

7. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The overarching goal of the Center for Catalysis in Biomimetic Confinement (CCBC) is to understand the means by which nature spatially organizes catalysis across scales using compartmentalization in bacteria. The team of investigators from Michigan State University, Argonne National Laboratory and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory will work together to acquire a fundamental understanding of how multi-step reaction pathways are confined within and optimized by selectively permeable protein-based shells of Bacterial Microcompartments (BMCs). The CCBC will apply this knowledge to establish BMC shell proteins as building blocks that can be used for confined, hierarchically-ordered biological and synthetic multi-step catalysis for reactions with long-range goals that involve addressing global challenges related to energy and the environment.
