香港城市大学化学系郭骏杰实验课题组（www.kitkwok.com）现招聘2名博士后（1名分析化学专业，1名RNA生物专业）。
团队介绍:
郭骏杰教授现正招募优秀的研究人员加入实验室。郭博士是香港城市大学化学系副教授，是核酸化学和生物学方面的专家。最近，他在Nature, Nature Methods, Nature Communications, Nature Protocols, Genome Biology, Nucleic Acid Research, Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Chemical Science等著名期刊上发表了一系列文章。此外，他凭借优秀的研究成果获得了许多奖项，包括英国皇家学会国际交流奖学金、裘槎创新奖、香港城市大学校长奖等。并且，他多次受邀请撰写综述文章并以通讯作者身份发表于顶级杂志期刊包括Trends in Biochemical Sciences, Trends in Biotechnology, Nature Plants, Nature Chemical Biology, Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology等。自2016年以来，郭教授的实验室与国内外大学 (剑桥大学、牛津大学、清华大学、新加坡国立大学、中山大学、香港大学、香港中文大学等) 建立了多项合作项目。欲了解更多信息，请登录www.kitkwok.com。
我们的研究重点是探索RNA结构和相互作用在生物学中的作用，特别是G -四链体结构/相互作用和非编码RNA结构/相互作用在哺乳动物转录组中的功能及其与基因调控、RNA代谢和疾病的相关性。目前实验室的两个新研究方向是开发一些用于检测、成像、干扰这些重要RNA结构和相互作用的靶向工具，以及发明一些创新的、以核酸为基础的技术来感知化学污染物和生物毒素。
研究的主题
1) G-四链体结构与功能
2) RNA生物学和基因调控
3)适配体开发与应用
--具有优秀的分析化学和分子科学技能，具有核酸适配体和生物传感经验的化学博士后优先考虑。

--具有优秀的分子生物学和化学生物学技能，具有RNA结构和生物学经验的生物学博士后优先考虑。

应聘者应在相关领域取得博士学位，有良好的论文发表记录，优秀的英语读写能力。
期望薪资:24500-33000港币/月，视乎研究经验、发表论文及资历而定。
候选人应发送简历和求职信，概述如下:
-研究成果的描述
-研究兴趣和计划
-至少2名推荐人的联系方式，可作为申请信的依据

Postdoc recruitment in Prof. Chun Kit Kwok’s lab at the City University of Hong Kong

2 postdoctoral positions (one analytical chemist, one RNA biologist) are available immediately at the Kwok Lab, Department of Chemistry, City University of Hong Kong. (www.kitkwok.com)

Introduction of Team:
Prof. Chun Kit Kwok is currently recruiting highly talented researchers to join the lab. Dr. Kwok, an associate professor of Chemistry Department in City University of Hong Kong, is an expert in nucleic acid chemistry and biology. Recently he has published a series of articles in prestigious journals including Nature, Nature Methods, Nature Communications, Nature Protocols, Genome Biology, Nucleic Acid Research, Angewandte Chemie International Edition, and Chemical Science. In addition, he has obtained many awards owing to his excellent research including Royal Society International Exchange Fellowship, Croucher Innovation Award, CityU President Award, and etc. Also, he has been invited to write reviews and feature articles as corresponding author for top-ranked journals such as Trends in Biochemical Sciences, Trends in Biotechnology, Nature Plants, Nature Chemical Biology, Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, etc. Since 2016, Prof. Kwok’s lab has established many collaboration projects with Universities both locally and globally (Cambridge University, Oxford University, Tsinghua University, National University of Singapore, Sun Yat-sen University, University of Hong Kong, Chinese University of Hong Kong, and etc.). For more information, please go to http://kitkwok.com.

Our research focus is to explore the role of RNA structures and interactions in biology, especially the functions of G-quadruplex structures/interactions and non-coding RNA structures/interactions in the mammalian transcriptome and their relevance to gene regulation, RNA metabolism and diseases. Two new research directions in the Kwok lab are to develop targeting tools for detection, imaging, intervention of these important RNA structures and interactions, as well as to invent innovative nucleic acid-based technologies for sensing chemical pollutants and biological toxins.

Research Themes
1) G-quadruplex structure and function
2) RNA biology and gene regulation
3) Aptamer development and application

--Candidates with excellent analytical chemistry and molecular science skills with experience in nucleic acid aptamer and biosensing will be preferred for the chemist postdoc post.

--Candidates with excellent molecular biology and chemical biology skills with experience in RNA structure and biology will be preferred for the biologist postdoc post.

Qualified candidates should have accomplished their Ph.D. degree in related areas, strong publication track records, and outstanding written and spoken english.

Expected salary: 24500-33000 HKD/month depending on research experience, publications, and qualifications

Candidates should send their Curriculum Vitae and a cover letter summarizing:
– A description of research accomplishments
– Research interests and plans
– Contact information of at least two referees for supporting letter request
