Postdocs

We are looking for research fellows with experience in microbiology, biochemistry, bioenergetics and animal models. Preferably the candidate has experience in working with Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a BSLIII environment. The Berney lab is focused on understanding how M. tuberculosis adapts to the host environment metabolically and bioenergetically. We identify vulnerable pathways that are then exploited for drug discovery.

Required:

  • Ph.D. in Microbiology or Biochemistry

  • Broad skill base in bacterial genetics and biochemical assays

  • Strong record of research experience and productivity

  • Excellent interpersonal and organizational skills

  • Excellent record keeping and data presentation

Recommended:

  • Expertise in metabolomics

  • Expertise in bioenergetics

  • Experience with in vivo models of infectious diseases, e.g. murine models


Graduate Students

Students interested in pursuing Ph.D. studies within the laboratory should apply to the Einstein Graduate Program in the Biomedical Sciences or the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP).
