Postdoctoral Position and PhD Studentship-Metabolomics / Lipidomics - Dr. Dominik Schwudke
            Our laboratory focuses on metabolic control of development and molecular understanding of tissue specificity and cell differentiation. To this end, we develop and apply mass spectrometry‐ based metabolomics/lipidomics approaches in conjunction with genetic experiments.(http://www.ncbs.res.in/research/dominik)
             We are looking for candidates with training in Chemistry or Biochemistry. A background in analytical techniques (HPLC, Capillary Electrophoresis, LC‐MS/MS, MALDI‐MS, GC, GC‐ MS) or Lipid chemistry is useful but not required. We seek team‐oriented candidates with good experimental and communication skills.
           Applicants must have a keen interest in working in a vibrant multidisciplinary research environment and enjoy the challenge of developing mass spectrometry‐based metabolomics/lipidomics approaches.
Postdoctoral Fellow:
