Job Description

The successful candidate will work with Prof YAO Shao Qin on chemical biology/drug discovery-related research under a project on "Targeted covalent Inhibitors against key epigenetic proteins (NMRC)".

Human kinases and epigenetic proteins are important therapeutic targets. Recent development of selective and potent inhibitors of proteins has yielded remarkable results in disease treatment, with numerous drugs already on the market, and many more undergoing clinical trials. Notwithstanding, the discovery of new covalent kinase and epigenetic drugs remains highly challenging, including issues related to selectivity, efficacy and acquired drug resistance. Taking cue from the kinase drug discovery field, the hypothesis of these projects is that a universal strategy for targeted covalent inhibitors (TCIs) capable of potent target inhibition and minimal acquired drug resistance is possible, if highly effective small molecules could be developed to covalently target non-cysteine (C) nucleophilic residues within/near the active-site of kinase/epigenetic proteins. Our recent discovery of covalent kinase inhibitors against BCR-ABL (a key kinase for CML) in which CBA/SA and EBA warheads formed stable, (reversible and irreversible) covalent linkage with catalytic lysine (K) in Abl kinase under cellular environments indicates other covalent chemistries are feasible. Therefore, the goal of the current proposals is to confirm covalent chemistries targeting other nucleophilic residues (E/D/R/M/etc) are possible, and amenable to the development of cell-active, selective TCIs for various therapeutic proteins.

The scope of this proposal will be limited to the fundamental basic science, and NOT the actual clinical implementation, of the developed chemical/chemical biology tools. Therefore, only cell-based and basic animal models will be tested on newly developed, select small-molecule TCIs. Experience/skills required are organic synthesis/chemical biology/protein chemistry/proteomics/molecular biology/cell biology (only some of above skills are required)

Qualifications

• Qualifications / Discipline: Master’s degree in Chemistry/Biochemistry/Pharmaceutical Chemistry/Biology
• Skills: Organic synthesis/chemical biology/protein chemistry/proteomics/molecular biology/cell biology
• Experience: At least 2 years’ relevant work experience

Job Description

Sustainable Bio-platform for High Quality Microbial Protein Production. To perform experimental and simulation work on system integration sand life cycle assessment .

Job Requrements

Ph.D. degree in Chem. Eng. and related research areas.

Experience researcher in chemical, biomedical, and environmental engineering. System integration and LCA background will be desirable.

Recipient of the esteemed International Translational Neuroscience Award, Dr. Yan, a pioneer in Brain Tumor research, joins IMCB to establish the NeuroPhenomics Lab. This lab marks a new chapter in our quest for profound biological insights and their translation into biomarkers and therapies.

The lab"s mission revolves around a profound exploration of brain tumor biology, particularly focusing on key driver mutations like IDH1 and IDH2. These mutations, significant in the development of aggressive malignant gliomas, are pivotal in altering chromatin and genome methylation, thus influencing tumor evolution. The lab extends this research by identifying other genetic alterations with potential clinical relevance.

Dedicated to exploring new frontiers, the NeuroPhenomics Lab integrates advanced techniques in genetics, epigenetics, and metabolomics at both single-cell and spatial levels. This approach allows for a detailed examination of tumor cell diversity and their interactions within the microenvironment. The lab also investigates neurometabolism, emphasizing the TCA cycle and IDH enzymes, and studies how metabolites affect the brain and tumor progression.

Aiming to bridge research and clinical application, the lab"s multi-dimensional strategy includes iPSCs, patient-derived organoids, transgenic models, and advanced imaging technologies. This positions the NeuroPhenomics Lab at the forefront of developing transformative therapies in neurooncology and neurometabolism.

Job Opportunity:

Join the NeuroPhenomics Lab in its endeavor to redefine brain tumor genomics. We seek individuals with a strong background in Computer Science or Bioinformatics, particularly in data analysis, to contribute to our innovative research.

Key Qualifications:

• PhD in Bioinformatics, Computer Science, Biostatistics, or a related field with a research focus.
• Individuals planning to pursue PhD training (at NUS or NTU) are also welcome to apply.
• Expertise in bioinformatics and next-generation sequencing data analysis.
• Experience with Single-cell sequencing and Spatial-omics data analysis is a plus.
• Familiarity with developing AI models for visual recognition of imaging data.
• Experience in applying research to train Large Language Models (LLM) is advantageous.
• Preferred experience in Computer-Aided Drug Discovery.
• Exceptional analytical, technical, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work independently and thrive in a dynamic team environment.
