A Postdoctoral position is immediately available in the Glycomics Core (https://research.bidmc.org/glycomics-core) (Department of Surgery) at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA, USA, to investigate the glycomic and glycoproteomic variations in numerous types of samples, disease states, and projects.  Our core facility works with researchers within the BIDMC community, as well as around the globe to provide mass spectrometry-based assays for glycomic and glycoproteomic questions. We are a one-of-a-kind fee-for-service institutional core providing both mass spectrometry glycomics and glycoproteomics based approaches, and working directly with Dr. Richard D. Cummings, Director, as well as the staff of the National Center for Functional Glycomics, which houses the glycan array facility for the Consortium for Functional Glycomics. (https://research.bidmc.org/ncfg)

This postdoc will work on multiple projects with a focus on glycoproteomic profiles of purified proteins, antibodies, and biological samples including cells, serum/plasma, and tissues.  

Techniques include glycoprotein analysis, isolation and purification of glycans and glycopeptides, HPLC, mass spectrometry, nanoLC-MS/MS and others.
