Position Description
A postdoctoral researcher position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Sarah F. Andres at the Pape Family Pediatric Research Institute, Oregon Health and Science University, Portland, OR. We are looking for an enthusiastic, highly motivated, and dedicated Ph.D. scientist who has experience with mouse models to join our team. The postdoc will lead projects uncovering novel mechanisms that modulate intestinal damage during the neonatal inflammatory disease necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), including immune cell and extracellular vesicle-mediated protection in mouse models. Projects include the use of genetic mouse models, human patient samples, including novel 3D patient-derived enteroids, cutting-edge molecular biology, extracellular vesicles, -omics approaches, and imaging techniques to answer critical questions. In addition to scientific training, the postdoc will also receive personalized mentoring to advance their own career development including networking introductions, goal setting, leadership opportunities, further training in public speaking, project management, grant, and manuscript writing, and chances to review manuscripts. Our research is highly translational with the ultimate aim of taking bench findings back to educate bedside treatments and practices.
