1. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
This postdoc will primarily engage in the Muon proton Scattering Experiment (MUSE), which takes place at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland. MUSE provides simultaneous measurement of elastic electron and muon scattering off the proton and investigates both charge states. This enables comparison of the cross sections and form factors, investigating two-photon effects and the proton charge radius in muons and electrons.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
2. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Fins and Limbs Lab is seeking a broadly trained postdoctoral associate to lead interdisciplinary research on the evolutionary biomechanics of salamander locomotion through an NSF CAREER grant awarded to Dr. Sandy Kawano. The overall aim of the project is to identify the anatomical and biomechanical changes to the musculoskeletal system that promoted or constrained the evolution of terrestrial locomotion in tetrapods, using salamanders as a modern analog for early digit-bearing tetrapods.

6. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The laboratory of Prof. Bethea is in search of 2 highly motivated Postdoctoral Associates. The Bethea laboratory works on neuroimmune mechanisms of CNS injury and repair with the ultimate goal of developing new therapies for chronic pain and other neurodegenerative disorders. These individuals will work with our team in both spinal cord injury and peripheral nerve injury models of chronic pain. They will be responsible for leading independent studies analyzing sex specific mechanisms of chronic pain and investigating therapeutic targets.

7. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The successful candidate will work under the direct supervision of Dr. Ed Seto. The research focuses on understanding the function of HDAC10 and HDAC11 in cancer biology. The Postdoctoral Associate will work with cell cultures and mouse animal models. This position is primarily a temporary/training position in which the incumbent plays a substantive role in planning and conducting research by designing and conducting experiments in a controlled laboratory setting. In collaboration with the Principal Investigator, the Postdoctoral Associate will participate in the planning of independent research, analyze and interpret data, publish results, attend conferences and meetings, and develop new theories and methodologies. The position may also involve leading and directing the work of lower level research staff.

11. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Laboratory of Dr Xiaoyan Zheng in the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology and the Cancer Center at the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences seeks a highly motivated Postdoctoral Associate. Our primary research interest is in identifying target genes regulated by the Hh signal and thus to understand the molecular mechanisms employed by the Hh signaling pathway in regulating cell-cell interactions (I). In parallel, we are interested in developing novel reagents and experimental approaches combined with cutting-edge imaging technologies to study the biochemical and cell biological principles governing a critical yet poorly understood step of Hh signal transduction: trafficking of Hh receptors (II).
