6. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
One line of research in the lab focuses on understanding the response to bisphosphonates (BPs), commonly prescribed drugs used to treat osteoporosis a condition that becomes of increasing importance as the world population ages. While BPs are generally safe, some patients do not respond well to these drugs and these drugs are associated with osteonecrosis of the jaw and atypical femoral fractures, but the cause of this variation in drug response isn’t known. To shed light on this, we have previously used genome-wide CRISPR screens to identify over 300 genes that affect the response to BPs.

7. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Applications are now being accepted for a 2-year NICHD T32 postdoctoral research fellowship in Developmental Science at the University of Michigan. The objective of the fellowship is to train individuals across areas of developmental science, including training in social contexts. This objective is broadly construed, as long as the proposal includes interdisciplinary training that will add new skills or methods to the mentee. We especially encourage applicants who plan to assess biological variables as well as context, though other research programs will also be considered.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
8. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
DLHS is seeking a highly motivated, talented postdoctoral scholar with experience in Collaborative Learning, Simulation-based training, and Multimodal Learning Analytics to join a dynamic research team with expertise in learning sciences, medical education, and computer science. The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to two research strands. The first project focuses on the development of a novel debriefing system that aims to capture and visualize multimodal data streams from the fully immersive multi-user VR simulation environment to evaluate learners’ cognitive (e.g., clinical decision-making) and behavioral (e.g., situational awareness, communication) processes.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
9. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS) at the University of Michigan is seeking applications for a postdoctoral research position to apply urban modeling and stakeholder engagement approaches to study the impacts of climate migration. The successful candidate will work under the mentorship of Derek Van Berkel and Maria Carmen Lemos on an NSF project called the Climate Adaptation and Resilience Strategies (CLARS). This project seeks to develop collaborative adaptation strategies for vulnerable climate migrants and host communities across urban settings in the Lake Victoria Basin (LVB) and Great Lakes Region (GLR).
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled

15. Postdoctoral Position
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Kalantry Laboratory in the Department of Human Genetics at the University of Michigan Medical School is seeking a postdoctoral research fellow to join our interdisciplinary and highly interactive laboratory team focused on elucidating principles of epigenetic inheritance through the study of mammalian X chromosome dosage compensation. X chromosome dosage compensation is a step-wise process that culminates in the transcriptional inactivation of one of the two X chromosomes in females and equalizes X-linked gene expression between the sexes. X-inactivation is an evolutionarily conserved paradigm of epigenetic regulation and lies at the nexus of functional long noncoding (lnc) RNAs and chromatin-modifying factors.
