Job Description & How to Apply Below
The Department of Pharmacology and Neuroscience, Creighton University School of Medicine in Omaha, NE, is seeking a postdoctoral fellow for a project funded by NIH.
Key Responsibilities- Airway hyperresponsiveness andairway inflammation are hallmarks of asthma that is clinically managed with β2-agonist bronchodilatorsand inhaled corticosteroids. Refractory asthma manifests with persistent symptoms despite the use of high-dose oral corticosteroids and long-acting β2-agonists and poses a major healthcare challenge.
Understanding the molecular mechanisms of therapeutic resistance and developing strategies to overcome such resistance poses a significant unmet need. - We are seeking a talented, highly motivated individual who is broadly interested in the molecular and cellular basis of refractory asthma.
Our research focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms of therapeutic resistance and developing new strategies to overcome such resistanceinrefractory asthma. - An ideal candidate will be expected to develop the project independently and will also have the opportunity to interact and participate in other studies of our multidisciplinary group in the lab and throughout the department. Our research team highly values creativity and independence in a collaborative and collegial academic environment.
- A successful candidate will have a doctorate in areas related to cell and molecular biology,immunology, signal transduction, and asthma supported by strong publications. Prior experience in airway smooth muscle cells and mouse models of asthma would be advantageous.
- The candidate will also be asked to assist in training of laboratory staff and graduate students in research techniques as well as writing grant proposals. This is a full time, grant funded role.
- Applicants should have a Ph.D., M.D., or M.D./Ph.D. degree
- One year of related experience
- Significant research accomplishments and scholarly promise
