Two postdoc positions are available immediately in the laboratory of Jianqin Lu of Pharmaceutical Sciences in
Pharmaceutics and Pharmacokinetics, College of Pharmacy (Ranked #16 in US), The University of
Arizona (ranked #73 globally by U.S. News & World Report, and a member of the Association of
American Universities, a distinction to only 62 North America's premier research institutions).

One postdoc candidate will focus on drug/peptide/siRNA/protein delivery (liposome, emulsion,
polymeric and core-shell nanoparticles), in vitro and in vivo characterizations and therapeutics
studies.

One postdoc candidate should be equipped with strong medicinal/bioconjugation chemistry skill,
and the ability to design and synthesize novel drug conjugates.

The overarching goal of the Lu lab is to apply synthetic chemistry, nanoparticle engineering, and
tumor immunology to develop efficacious nanotherapeutics to address the pressing unmet needs in
current cancer therapy. The current research focuses on developing efficacious cancer
immunotherapy via nano-enabled immuno-engineering through concurrently inducing immunogenic
cell death and reversing immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (e.g. Immune checkpoints).

Qualifications:
Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Organic/Medicinal Chemistry or relevant scientific field.
High impact publications in Organic/Medicinal Chemistry, or Drug Delivery/Nanomedicine.

Job Type: Full-time; Salary: $47,659.00 to $50,000.00 /year.

Interested applicants should send cover letter and CV to Dr. Jianqin Lu at lu6@pharmacy.arizona.edu or
