D. E. Shaw Research is seeking postdoctoral fellows to join our New York–based team. This is a unique opportunity to develop and work with transformative technology in a dynamic, interdisciplinary environment. Candidates should have expertise in computational biophysics or chemistry, structural biology, drug discovery, or in a relevant area of computer science.
Relevant areas of experience might include the study of allosteric interactions or other functionally important conformational changes in biological molecules, investigation of protein–protein or protein–nucleic acid interactions, and direct application of molecular dynamics or other computational methods to either fundamental biophysical problems or drug discovery. Specific knowledge of any of these areas is less critical, however, than strong research skills, and a history of innovation and accomplishment. We are committed to fostering a stimulating, rewarding, and flexible work environment, and we offer above-market compensation.
