Penn State College of Medicine

Postdoctoral Research Position

The Yandong Zhou Lab in the Department of Cell and Biological Systems at the Penn State College of Medicine (Hershey, PA) is seeking a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral scholar to join our multidisciplinary team. We are investigating mechanisms of STIM/Orai‑mediated Ca²⁺ signaling using an integrated approach—biochemistry, biophysics, omics, and transgenic mouse models—to deepen our understanding of calcium signaling under both physiological and pathological conditions, including fibrosis and cancer progression. Our goal is to develop targeted therapeutic strategies that modulate ion channel activity.

Under the guidance of the principal investigator, the postdoc will take responsibility for specific, ongoing research projects and contribute to the overall goals of the lab. The position offers opportunities to expand scientific knowledge, gain technical expertise, and develop professionally toward an independent research career.

Responsibilities include:

Designing and conducting experiments

Analyzing, interpreting, and presenting research findings

Participating in manuscript and grant writing

Attending and presenting at seminars and national conferences

Assisting in lab management and supervision of junior members

Developing new research methods and contributing to other projects in the lab

Qualifications:

Ph.D. in biomedical sciences or related field

Publication record in peer-reviewed journals

Hands-on experience with mammalian cell culture, rodent models, and standard molecular/cell biology techniques (e.g., Western blot, PCR, transfection, construct design, shRNA/CRISPR, immunostaining, fluorescence microscopy, live imaging)

Preferred expertise in one or more of the following areas: cancer biology, vascular biology, signal transduction, protein biochemistry/biophysics, ion channels, or electrophysiology

Candidates who are highly productive, motivated, and passionate about science, with a wide range of research experience, are encouraged to apply by sending their application package directly to Dr. Yandong Zhou ([Please click the Apply button for the link or address]).
