Postdoc in RNA Vaccine Design and Delivery at Department of Pharmacy

This postdoctoral position in RNA vaccine design and delivery within a Department of Pharmacy requires advanced expertise in molecular biology, specifically in RNA technology and vaccine development. Candidates should possess a strong foundation in RNA synthesis, modification, and formulation techniques, with experience in designing RNA molecules for therapeutic or prophylactic applications. Proficiency in delivery systems, such as lipid nanoparticles or other nanocarriers, is essential to optimize vaccine efficacy and stability. The role demands familiarity with immunological assays to evaluate vaccine-induced immune responses, as well as skills in analytical methods to characterize RNA constructs and delivery vehicles. Experience with cell culture, in vitro transfection, and possibly small animal models for preclinical testing will be advantageous. Candidates are expected to have a doctoral degree in pharmacy, molecular biology, biochemistry, or related fields, with a solid publication record demonstrating research competence in RNA therapeutics or vaccine science. Strong data analysis, problem-solving abilities, and collaborative skills are important for interdisciplinary work in a pharmaceutical research environment focused on innovative vaccine platforms.
