Field: Biological Chemistry, Environmental Toxicology, Stem Cell Research

Since the previous candidate rejected the offer in the last minute, there is
a graduate student position to be filled. Please contact the professor asap.
The candidate will be "first-come-first-considered", as long as he/she is
qualified. The candidate needs to confirm the acceptance of the offer
first, in order to proceed to next step.

Research direction: we look for a self-motivated researcher to create fluorescent
/luminescent protein based biosensors, and genetic code expanded organisms to
sense environmental toxins and chemicals. The student will also develop tools for
stem cell biology.

Preferred are these trained in molecular biology or environmental sciences.
The student will be admitted through the Environmental Toxicology program:
http://etox.ucr.edu/studentinfo.html

Research group: http://research.chem.ucr.edu/groups/ai/
Research interest:
  Biosensors for chemicals of environmental and biological interests
  Bioorthogonal chemistry targeting cellular structure and dynamics
  Novel methods and applications of protein engineering
  Light analysis and perturbation of cellular networks

Our projects will enable students to develop expertise in a combination
of protein engineering, organic synthesis, molecular and cell biology,
microscopic imaging, and mass spectrometry.

UCR is one of the ten general campuses of the University of California system.
Specifically, the Environmental Toxicology program is ranked top 20 in the
United States.In addition, Riverside is close to both Los Angeles and San Diego,
and is a part of south California where a vibrant Biotech industry resides. As a
suburb of Los Angeles, Riverside is separated enough to keep its safe, quiet
and affordable environment, but remains an easy access to the big-city life.

Please contact the professor at huiwang.ai@ucr.edu, in the next 3-4 days.

Requirement: GRE 1200 or 300
TOEFL 85
GPA 80/100
Trained in biology-related majors
