A Post-Doctoral Position is open in the Susiarjo Lab in the Department of Environmental Medicine, at the University of Rochester Medical Center in Rochester, NY.
Applicants should hold a PhD and have expertise in developmental biology, environmental health science, molecular, or cellular biology. As a member of the Susiarjo lab, the postdoc will investigate how environmental factors (e.g., exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals and differences in micronutrient status) during pregnancy can modulate maternal and fetal health outcomes. Members of the Susiarjo lab utilize genetic and epigenetic methods in combination with reproductive and metabolic studies to elucidate how gene-environment interaction during pregnancy reprograms epigenetic marks during development and modulates disease susceptibilities using the mouse model. Researchers are expected to carry out standard molecular biology and epigenetic methods. We offer a very collaborative, collegial atmosphere, along with a lively, supportive research community spanning the University of Rochester Medical Center.
The city of Rochester provides a safe, beautiful, affordable, and family-friendly environment. Qualified applicants will have earned a Ph.D. and should be highly motivated and possess a genuine interest in research directions pursued by the Susiarjo laboratory.
Applicants should provide a cover letter describing their past projects and career goals, and their CV with names and contacts of three references. Please send emails to martha_susiarjo@urmc.rochester.edu
