Shanghai Institute for Advanced Immunochemical Studies (SIAIS), affiliated with ShanghaiTech University, was founded on October 12th, 2012. Richard A. Lerner, the founder and pioneer of immunochemistry, is the founding director of SIAIS. With the vision of becoming the “Bell Labs” in biomedical research, SIAIS is growing into a leading international biomedical research institute that values originality and focuses on major diseases, including infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases and other important human diseases.?

SIAIS currently comprises 18 laboratories spanning diverse research areas, including infection and immunity, structural biology, AI-driven drug discovery, gene editing, medicinal chemistry, and DNA-encoded library (DEL) technology, among others.

崗位職責(zé)：

Join Our Institute: Faculty Positions in Biomedical Research and Therapeutic Discovery:

We are inviting exceptional and innovative scientists to apply for multiple tenure-track or tenured faculty positions at our institute. Applicants at all career stages are welcome, provided they are dedicated to advancing biomedical research and therapeutic innovation.

We are particularly interested in candidates focused on disease mechanisms and therapeutic development for autoimmune disorders—including systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, axial spondyloarthritis, and ulcerative colitis—as well as in enhancing anti-tumor immunity and addressing infectious diseases such as tuberculosis, coronavirus, and flavivirus infections. While these represent priority areas, we also encourage applications from researchers working in related fields.

We are especially enthusiastic about applicants with expertise in cutting-edge technologies and methodologies, such as (but not limited to): AI-driven drug design, De novo protein design, Bioinformatics, Medicinal chemistry, Chemical biology, Drug modality development.

Candidates who can bridge disease biology with therapeutic innovation—and who have a strong track record or clear potential in translational research that leads to novel drug candidates—are strongly encouraged to apply.

Successful candidates will join a vibrant, interdisciplinary research environment with access to state-of-the-art facilities and extensive opportunities for collaboration across immunology, infectious disease, structural biology, computational science, and drug development.

招聘條件：

Successful applicants should possess a strong educational background and an outstanding research track record in biochemistry, bioengineering, biomedicine, computer science, medicinal chemistry, or a related field. They should demonstrate innovative thinking, scientific independence, and the ability to establish and lead an independent research group. Strong collaboration and teamwork skills are also essential.

工作條件與工資待遇：

Salary and startup funds are highly competitive, commensurate with experience and academic accomplishment.
