1. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
A post-doctoral position is available in the Grant Translational Blood-brain Barrier Laboratory in the Department of Neurosurgery and Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke University. This position will involve basic and translational research in the areas of brain tumor cell biology and mouse models of brain cancer. We are particularly interested in the blood-tumor barrier and augmenting the drug delivery to brain tumors. The focus of work for this postdoc will be on the neuroimaging of mouse models of human brain cancer using intravital microscopy. The post-doc will receive training and mentoring in the use of mouse models and in vivo systems to study the dynamic changes in the blood-tumor barrier during tumor growth.

3. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
The post-doctoral research associate will lead specific research projects in the Department of Pediatrics (Division of Medical Genetics). The research projects will focus on hepatic glycogen storage diseases (GSDs). The post doc will contribute to the understanding of hepatic GSDs as we have ongoing retrospective and prospective clinical natural history studies to better understand disease progression and clinical outcomes of patients diagnosed with a hepatic GSD. This post doc will collaborate with different research team members on other research projects and will use the clinical knowledge to advance the science in GSDs. This post doc position requires a minimum two-year commitment and will consist of a hybrid work arrangement.

4. Postdoctoral Fellowship
About Postdoctoral Position
The Tata lab in the Department of Cell Biology, Duke University School of Medicine seeks a full-time Postdoctoral Associate to study cellular plasticity mechanisms in lung injury repair and tumorigenesis. We seek to understand the genetic and epigenetic basis of organ regeneration and tumorigenesis. We study the properties of stem/progenitor cells in diverse epithelial tissues (with a primary focus on lung) and their relationships with neighboring tissues in pathophysiological conditions. We utilize in vivo mouse genetics, live imaging, 3D organoids, genome-wide Cas9/Crispr based functional genetic screening, and next generation sequencing technologies to study the behavior of tissues at single cell level.
