NIH Neuman Lab Recruiting Postbaccalaureate Fellow for Bacterial Enzyme Research
Summary
The Neuman Lab at the NIH National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute is recruiting a full-time Postbaccalaureate Fellow to study bacterial type II topoisomerases (DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV) — essential enzymes that locate, cleave, and resolve DNA entanglements. These enzymes are major targets for antibacterial drugs, and the research aims to uncover mechanisms to guide future antibiotic development.

· 3 pulledThe Neuman Lab at the NIH National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute is now recruiting a full time Postbaccalaureate Fellow to join our team.
Our group studies how essential bacterial enzymes, specially type II topoisomerases (DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV), locate, cleave, and resolve DNA entanglements throughout the genome.
These enzymes are major targets of antibacterial drugs, and our goal is to uncover mechanisms that could guide future antibiotic development.
