The Scherrer lab at UNC CH investigates the neural circuits and molecular mechanisms that underlie pain perception and its modulation by opioids, using the mouse as a model system and a variety of approaches including multiomics, mol/cell biology, mouse genetics, neuroanatomy, electrophysiology, opto /chemo genetics, in vivo calcium imaging, and behavior. Successful candi

The Phanstiel lab at UNC (http //phanstiel lab.med.unc.edu/) has an open position for a computational postdoc to study the genetics of human disease. The successful candidate will analyze response QTLs (expression QTLs, splicing QTLs, chromatin accessibility QTLs, etc) as well as corresponding genomic data (Hi C, CUT & RUN , phosphoproteomics, etc) in primary human cells

Postdoctoral fellows with experience in single molecule imaging, to explore new methods for visualizing conformational changes of individual molecules within living cells (Cell, 184(22) 5670 5685, 2021. PMC8556369). We will study the nanometer scale structural dynamics of integrin adhesion complexes, podosomes, and potentially other dynamic organelles. The role of these s

The postdoc that fills this role will be examining the mechanism of axon pruning in models of neurons as well es examining apoptosis regulation in induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. This work involves isolating sympathetic neurons from neonatal mice, culturing them in microfluidic chambers, and probing the molecular pathways of axon degeneration using molecular and cel

Rivers actively transport autochthonous and allochthonous carbon, emitting carbon dioxide and methane as products of anaerobic and anaerobic metabolism, and as direct transport from groundwater contributions. The project objectives are to parse drivers of greenhouse gas concentration and flux patterns in rivers across the United States in order to produce continuous estim

The Phanstiel Lab at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (http //phanstiel lab.med.unc.edu/) is looking for a highly motivated and creative postdoctoral fellow to study gene regulation in human development and disease. We are particularly interested in understanding the mechanisms through which enhancers and three dimensional chromatin structure alter transcri

The work conducted by the Postdoc will include, investigating the biochemical and molecular networks underlying T cell function during immune regulation and disease, by combining mouse models and biochemical, molecular, genetic, multi omics, and immunological approaches. Specifically, the postdoc will study how helper T cell differentiation is regulated to contribute to n

Incidence and mortality of endometrial (uterine) cancer is increasing at an alarming rate. Obesity, hormone exposures, and inherited cancer risk ( DNA mismatch repair defects called Lynch syndrome) are major risk factors for developing uterine cancer. However, this disease has received limited attention, resulting in significant knowledge gaps in mechanisms of uterine can

The Sumner Lab is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate with graduate experience in NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry to join our team and conduct metabolomics analysis. The Postdoctoral Research Associate will work as an integral part of the Sumner Lab at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Nutrition Research Institute to conduct metabolomics investi

Cancer is a common diagnosis in the emergency department (ED) and by the time patients reach the ED, their cancer has often progressed to later stages. EDs are not intended to diagnose cancer. However, across different cancer types, the burden and risk factors of cancer diagnosis as an emergency have not been studied extensively in U.S. populations. Our NCI funded project
