Job Description
Employment Type: Permanent Faculty
Vacancy ID: FAC0005969
Salary Range: Dependent on Experience and Qualifications
Position Summary/Description:
The Department of Psychiatry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine is seeking a physician-scientist with strong skills in computational neuroscience, structural biology, and molecular pharmacology to advance precision-medicine approaches in serious mental illness. The Research Assistant Professor position is a full-time, fixed-term appointment at the Research Assistant Professor level. Experience integrating in vitro functional assays (e.g., Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer) with in silico structural methods (e.g., AlphaFold-based structure prediction and molecular dynamics simulations) is required. The successful candidate will develop a research program characterizing how genetic variants of neuroreceptors modulate medication binding and receptor dynamics, with the goal...
