Postdoc Positions in Biomaterials and Drug Delivery
The Zhao Lab (zhaolab.ua.edu) of the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at the University of Alabama is seeking four highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral candidates who have a solid background either in polymer, drug delivery, nanomedicine, organic chemistry, pain treatment, and/or tissue engineering. The successful applicants will be responsible for the study of alternative strategies and therapies for pain management. This is a highly collaborative project involving three laboratories at the University of Alabama (Chao Zhao lab), University of California San Diego (Tony Yaksh lab), and the University of Alabama at Birmingham (Ursula Wesselmann lab). Postdoctoral candidates will primarily work at the University of Alabama and will spend 3-6 months at UC San Diego for animal model training. The Zhao Lab is dedicated to polymeric biomaterials for drug delivery and tissue engineering, with a particular focus on the application of tetrodotoxin in pain treatment. Since 2018, the Zhao lab has received multiple grants from NIH/NIGMS, NIH/NINDS, and the U. S. Department of Education.
Qualifications
? Ph.D./M.D. with a background in polymer, drug delivery, nanomedicine, organic chemistry, and/or tissue engineering.
? Individuals with experience in pain treatment will be given preference.
? Experience in animal models is preferred, but not necessary.
? Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English with good organizational and analytical abilities.
? Motivated to pursue postdoctoral training required for a future independent academic career.
Salary
$52,000 to 54,000/year + health insurance
