- The starting salary for a new postdoc at the Buck is $68,000 in 2023, with a range up to $82,000 commensurate with postdoc level & experience.
- Generous benefits package including health insurance, paid parental leave, vacation / sick, and 401(k) with 5% employer match.
- Work visa sponsorship available for qualified candidates.
PROJECTS
Aging and age-related disease research proteomic analysis of human tissues during the aging process, cancer tissues, Alzheimer’s disease tissues, and biofluids.
The project will be embedded in a large collaborative effort at the Buck Institute and with outside collaborators.
- Discovery proteomics, protein quantification.
- Mass spectrometry (MS), modern instrumentation, technology development.
- Biomarkers of Aging.
- Cancer Biomarkers - Extracellular Matrix.
- Many other projects are available in the laboratory that are directly related to neurodegenerative diseases, proteostasis, kidney injury metabolism, and the role of sirtuins.
QUALIFICATIONS
- PhD in Chemistry, Biology, or other related fields.
- Experience in independently operating MS instrumentation.
- Enthusiasm to work on relevant disease-related projects with precious sample sets (human).
- Experience in Data Processing.
ABOUT US
Our success will ultimately change healthcare. At the Buck, we aim to end the threat of age-related diseases for this and future generations by bringing together the most capable and passionate scientists from a broad range of disciplines to identify and impede the ways in which we age.
We are an independent, non-profit institution located in Marin County, CA, with the goal of increasing human health span, or the healthy years of life.
Globally recognized as the pioneer and leader in efforts to target aging the number one risk factor for diseases including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, cancer, macular degeneration, heart disease, and diabetes the Buck seeks to help people live better longer.
We are an equal opportunity employer and strive to create an atmosphere where diversity of identity, experience, and background are welcomed, valued, and supported.
Candidates who contribute to this diversity are strongly encouraged to apply.
