The laboratory of Dr. Xing Liu in the Department of Biochemistry at Purdue University is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join an interdisciplinary research program investigating fundamental mechanisms of protein regulation in mammalian cells and model organisms. The laboratory studies dynamic protein regulatory networks, with particular interests in protein ubiquitination, protein complex remodeling, and cellular signaling, and how these processes regulate cell function and developmental plasticity.
Our research uses mammalian cell systems and model plants to address fundamental biological questions across molecular, cellular, and organismal scales. Current projects integrate cell biology, molecular genetics, genome editing, quantitative proteomics, and complementary biochemical and biophysical approaches. We are particularly interested in researchers who enjoy using mechanistic approaches to understand biological regulation in cellular and organismal contexts.
