Available project areas:

✔ Structural Biology or Single Molecule Biophysics: These projects aim to explore biological systems through detailed structural determination or single-molecule biochemistry. They are looking for someone with a strong understanding of nucleic acid biochemistry and biophysics. Experience in microbial engineering is a plus. Dr. Ailong Ke's Lab frequently uses Krios and FIB-milling instruments.

✔ Genome Editing: In these projects, Dr. Ailong Ke's Lab focuses on developing new genome editing tools and improving delivery methods for these tools in living cells. Ideal candidates should be knowledgeable in nucleic acid biochemistry, deep sequencing techniques, and managing mammalian cell cultures. Experience with mRNA synthesis, delivery or mouse work is advantageous.

✔ Protein and RNA Engineering: These projects involve improving genome editing tools using AI or high-throughput methods. Candidates should have experience in AI, directed evolution or deep mutational scanning.

Qualifications: Candidates must have published at least one first-author paper in a well-known journal and must have a Ph.D. or an equivalent degree before starting. To apply, please send your CV, publication list, and three recommendation letters to ailong.ke@yale.edu.
