3. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Peng laboratory has been performing the translational studies to dissect molecular mechanisms responsible for the senescence and dysfunction of T cells in the tumor microenvironment from different types of cancers, including head and neck cancers, and then to develop effective strategies for molecular and metabolic control of T cell fate and function for enhanced tumor immunity and immunotherapy.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
4. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
To develop advanced neutron and X-ray scattering methods for analyzing biomass-derived polymers, waste plastics, and protein-based material. The position involves investigating polymer conformations in mixed solvent systems and within porous media, focusing on upcycling waste plastics and biomass/lignin valorization.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
5. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Postdoctoral Research Associate to join our pediatric neuroimaging lab investigating Cerebral Oxygen Metabolism in Children (COMIC Lab). The successful candidate will contribute to cutting-edge research focused on understanding brain development, cerebral blood flow, and ischemic stroke risk in children. This position offers a unique opportunity to work with a multidisciplinary team using advanced neuroimaging techniques.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
6. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Our research targets psychiatric disorders such as depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorders, and bipolar disorder, which are significantly linked to challenges in social behaviors. Despite their prevalence, the representation and processing of social information in patients with psychiatric conditions remain largely unclear. We use a suite of cutting-edge techniques, including in vivo multi-photon imaging, fiber photometry, and custom-built behavioral assays to map the neural dynamics of social behavior.

7. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
This position seeks to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms of inflammatory osteolysis and metabolic regulation of skeletal/joint homeostasis and pathology. The approaches include the development and use of genetically engineered mice as disease models of inflammatory bone lysis and joint diseases to mimic human bone and joint pathologies.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
8. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The lab of Dr. Gaya Amarasinghe at Washington University in St. Louis School of Medicine, Department of Pathology and Immunology, is looking for a Postdoctoral Research Associate. The Amarasinghe lab is focused on developing a mechanistic understanding of host-pathogen interactions. The Amarasinghe group routinely uses biochemical and biophysical methods coupled with cellular assays to identify and characterize components from hosts and pathogens to determine mechanism for pathogen replication and immune evasion.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
9. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Cruchaga lab generates and analyzes high-throughput multi-omic data to study neurodegeneration and diseases of the central nervous system with emphasis on Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and other dementias. The ultimate goal of the lab is to understand the biology of these diseases, to define novel biomarkers, and to identify novel therapeutical targets. We have pioneered in the integration of genetics with omic data to identify proteomic signatures and develop novel predictive models for Alzheimer’s, Parkinson, and Dystonia as well as to identify novel proteins and pathways implicated on disease pathogenesis.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
10. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Cruchaga Lab at Washington University School of Medicine is recruiting multiple Postdoctoral Research Associates. The NeuroGenomics and Informatics Center generates and analyzes Whole-Genome Sequencing data and high-throughput, multi-dimensional -omic data to study neurodegeneration and diseases of the central nervous system, with an emphasis on Alzheimer disease, Parkinson’s disease, and other dementias. The ultimate goal of the NGI is to understand the biology of these diseases, to define novel biomarkers, and to identify novel therapeutic targets.

15. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Our primary goal is to unravel the mechanism of axon degeneration and its role in neurodegenerative disease. Many of our projects are pursued collaboratively with the Aaron DiAntonio lab and focus on how defects in NAD homeostasis alter disease progression in peripheral neuropathy, ALS and retinal degenerative disorders. One set of studies is aimed at determining how the NADase activity of the TIR domain protein SARM1 is regulated and how its activity influences downstream signaling pathways that control axon maintenance. Another area of interest focuses on motor neuron abnormalities that occur in ALS and in peripheral neuropathy.
