Join the Dacks Lab at the University of Alberta as a Postdoctoral Scholar and delve into evolutionary cell biology. This hybrid position emphasizes research on adaptin protein complexes and vesicular trafficking.

The lab seeks a dedicated researcher for a two-year role focusing on the pre-LECA evolution of adaptin protein complexes using Dictyostelium discoideum. You will work in a agile environment equipped with state-of-the-art microscopy and computing technologies, marrying theoretical bioinformatics with practical experiments.

Key Responsibilities:
• Study the evolution of adaptin protein complexes
• Implement Ancestral Protein Reconstruction techniques
• Utilize bioinformatics for data analysis
• Engage in collaborative projects within the lab
• Prepare research for publication and dissemination

Requirements:
• Completed PhD in Evolutionary Biology or related area
• Experience in cell biology and bioinformatics
• Proficiency in data analysis software
• Strong collaborative and independent working skills
• Effective communication and documentation abilities

Drive impactful research initiatives on early vesicular trafficking evolution at the Dacks Lab.
