Job Overview

Job Description

I am excited to share that my lab is recruiting a postdoctoral scholar to expand an effort at the interface of enzyme directed evolution, AI enabled enzyme design, and biosensor development.

This work is in collaboration with Cornucopian Capital and Joe Wang at UC San Diego, and is focused on creating a new generation of biosensors that can better measure metabolic health and provide consumer insights to support healthier decisions.

The project will bring together protein engineering, computational design, experimental evolution, and translational applications in food, health, and biotechnology.

We are looking for someone who is excited to work across disciplines, build new technologies, and help define what the future of precision metabolic health can look like.

If you are interested, or know outstanding candidates with experience in enzyme engineering, biosensors, protein design, directed evolution, synthetic biology, or related areas, please apply here: https://lnkd.in/gjvszC_5

Excited to grow this effort and build the tools needed to better understand how biology, food, and health connect at the molecular level.
