School of Medicine Established in 1930, Duke University School of Medicine is the youngest of the nation's top medical schools. Ranked sixth among medical schools in the nation, the School takes pride in being an inclusive community of outstanding learners, investigators, clinicians, and staff where interdisciplinary collaboration is embraced and great ideas accelerate translation of fundamental scientific
discoveries to improve human health locally and around the globe. Composed of more than 2,600 faculty physicians and researchers, nearly 2,000 students, and more than 6,200 staff, the Duke University School of Medicine along with the Duke University School of Nursing, and Duke University Health System comprise Duke Health, a world-class academic medical center. The Health System encompasses Duke University Hospital,
Duke Regional Hospital, Duke Raleigh Hospital, Duke Health Integrated Practice, Duke Primary Care, Duke Home Care and Hospice, Duke Health and Wellness, and multiple affiliations.Be You. Postdoctoral Position in Epitranscriptomics in the Meyer Lab (Duke University) The Meyer Laboratory at Duke University is seeking highly motivated postdoctoral fellows to join an interdisciplinary research program focused on
understanding how RNA modifications regulate gene expression and cellular function in health and disease. Our laboratory investigates the molecular and biological functions of m6A, the most abundant internal modification in eukaryotic mRNA. We are particularly interested in uncovering how m6A shapes RNA:protein interactions, influences brain function, and contributes to disease processes. Ongoing projects combine
molecular biology, neurobiology, biochemistry, and computational approaches to address fundamental questions in RNA regulation. Minimum Requirements: Min Degree Requirements: Ph.D. or equivalent doctorate (e.g. Sc.D., M.D., D.V.M.). This position is Onsite. The work is performed on-site or at a designated assignment location. Be Bold. Available research areas include: Mechanistic studies of how m6A alters RNA:protein
interactions across the transcriptome Defining the roles of m6A and RNA-binding proteins in brain development, neural function, and neurological disease Development of next-generation technologies for spatial epitranscriptomics Discovery of novel m6A readers, repelled proteins, and regulatory mechanisms controlling gene expression in cancer We welcome applicants from diverse scientific backgrounds.
