Postdoctoral Associate Positions

Research in Melinda Larsen’s laboratory is focused on regeneration and repair of tissue damage that occurs as a result of injury.

An NIH-funded Postdoctoral Associate position is available to investigate the contribution of cellular plasticity to recovery and regenerative responses following mechanical injury and irradiation using genetically engineered mouse models in combination with imaging and scRNA-Seq. Applicants must hold a Ph.D. received within the past three years from a college or university accredited by a USDOE, or an internationally recognized accrediting organization in Cell and/or Molecular Biology or a related field, with a publication record commensurate with their level of experience. Applicants should have a working knowledge of genetics, transgenic mouse models, bioinformatics, and statistical analysis, as demonstrated through publications.  Applicants must have proficiency in English and the ability to work in a diverse, collaborative environment. Applicants should submit a combined PDF that includes a CV and a one-page statement describing research accomplishments and specific reasons for interest in the research topics of this position, and names/contact information for three references to: Dr. Melinda Larsen mlarsen@albany.edu
