Position Summary
The Hoffmann lab is recruiting a motivated, driven, and skilled diverse postdoc (Research Associate) interested in elucidating the contribution of environmental and toxicology induced changes in circadian rhythms in pregnancy outcome.
This 2-year postdoc position is funded by a NIH diversity supplement and requires the applicant to be fulfill one of the categories outlined by NIEHS (https://www.niehs.nih.gov/research/supported/training/supplement)
The research project will involve a combined in vitro and in vivo approach, pharmacological and toxicological screenings, circadian rhythm studies and pregnancy induces changes in the mother, placenta, and fetus, using the mouse as a model.
The Hoffmann lab is part of the Department of Animal Science (https://www.canr.msu.edu/ans/), the Neuroscience Program (https://neuroscience.natsci.msu.edu/) and the Reproductive and Developmental Science Program (RDSP, http://rdsp.canr.msu.edu/) at Michigan State University. These programs offer an exciting and unique environment for performing state-of-the-art biomedical, animal and basic research with top scientists in the field. Research in the Hoffmann lab focuses on the molecular mechanisms regulating reproductive function, circadian rhythms and the pregnancy outcome (https://www.canr.msu.edu/hoffmann/).
