Overview
Postdoctoral Scholar
Under the PI's supervision, Postdoctoral Researcher will contribute to NIH-funded research projects focused on understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying cardiovascular disease, with a particular emphasis on vascular biology, physiology and intracellular signaling pathways. The researcher will be responsible for designing and conducting experiments, analyzing complex biological data, preparing scientific manuscripts, and presenting findings at internal and external research meetings. The successful candidate will be expected to lead and execute experiments involving in vitro cellular models and in vivo mouse models to investigate mechanisms of cardiovascular disease. He should have prior experience with the molecular biology techniques such as immunoblotting, PCR, and protein extraction and purification, also with biochemical assays such as nitric oxide quantification, enzymatic activity, and oxidative stress markers, in addition to physiological and functional assessments including blood pressure monitoring, myography and non-invasive imaging. In addition, the Postdoctoral Researcher will help the PI in research-related coordination duties that support the overall function and compliance of the lab. These responsibilities include assisting with laboratory organization, maintaining protocol documentation, coordinating lab meetings and collaborative communications, and helping to onboard and guide new research trainees. Location: Davis Heart and Lung Research Institute (0113) Position Type: Term (Fixed Term) Scheduled Hours: 40 Shift: First Shift Ph.D. in Molecular Biology, or a closely related field. Hands-on experience in molecular and cellular biology techniques. Experience working with laboratory mice, including procedures and tissue handling. Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills. Prior experience in cardiovascular, vascular biology, or nitric oxide signaling. Prior experience in heme protein such as cytoglobin and its role in cardiovascular, vascular biology, or nitric oxide signaling.
