Job Description
The Blind Lab is looking for an outstanding recent PhD looking to continue their training in structural biology, specifically focusing on crystallographic approaches to studying how small molecule drugs and/or lipids regulate nuclear receptors.
The ideal candidate is a recent PhD with infectious, geeky enthusiasm for science who wants to work hard and play hard! We have a very healthy, happy lab culture that is extremely scientifically diverse. We are multidisciplinary to the bone: Four postdocs currently in the lab have done their PhDs in rainbow trout microbiome genomics, mechanical loading in computational biomedical engineering, cancer immune cell signaling, and the thermodynamics of transcription factor binding to DNA. We also have a PhD student doing biophysics/structural biology, an RA and ~12 undergrads running around helping everyone out… achem.

If you’re doubting your fit, take a shot and send me your CV! I got my postdoc at my number one choice lab with ZERO papers from my PhD, just some good letters.
If you’d like to discuss more, send your CV to ray at ray.blind@vanderbilt.edu
