We are seeking a motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to develop and conduct high-quality research projects within our program on the systems biology of aging. The successful candidate will design and perform experimental and analytical studies, establish and apply state-of-the-art methods, and analyze high-dimensional datasets using approaches from data science, statistics and computational biology.
Key responsibilities include:
-
conducting independent research within the lab’s systems biology of aging program, using experimental, computational and data-driven approaches;
-
developing and applying state-of-the-art methods for the analysis of aging-related biological processes;
- publishing and presenting research findings and contributing to grant applications and scientific collaborations;
- contributing to the supervision and training of junior researchers.
The position provides opportunities to develop an independent research profile, expand leadership and project-management experience, build national and international collaborations, and prepare for future scientific leadership roles.
The Ehninger Lab investigates the systems biology of aging, with a particular interest in understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms that shape aging trajectories and their links to neurodegenerative and other aging-associated diseases. Our work combines experimental and computational approaches to identify mechanisms and pathways that contribute to age-related functional decline and disease.
