Postdoctoral Research Fellow - Neurology (Dr. Jung)

University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston

A Postdoctoral Fellow position is available to study the role of age‑associated factors in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in the Stroke Research Laboratory at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. This is an NIH‑funded postdoctoral fellow position. The laboratory focuses on how age‑associated signaling drives neuroinflammation in aged and post‑stroke brains, as well as in peripheral organs, thereby disrupting stroke recovery. The successful candidate will conduct animal surgeries using an ICH model, utilize FACS and various in‑vivo techniques for data analysis, and conduct research projects aimed at understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying cerebrovascular disease progression and neuroinflammation following ICH. Key Responsibilities Perform mouse survival surgeries (ICH models) and in‑vivo injections, including behavioral tests, post‑operative care, and tissue dissections. Collect and process biological samples, including blood, tissue, and organs. Perform biochemical experiments and FACS analysis on collected biological samples. Collaborate with other team members to design and perform experiments and interpret results. Maintain accurate records of experimental procedures and data. Communicate research findings through presentations, publications, and scientific meetings. Participate in lab meetings, journal clubs, and other research activities within the Stroke Research Laboratory. Preferences PhD, MD, or MD/PhD in a relevant field (e.g., Neuroscience, Immunology, Biology, Biomedical Sciences, or related discipline) preferred. Expertise in animal surgery techniques, including aseptic technique and surgical instrumentation, is preferred. Location 6431 Fannin Street, Houston, Texas 77030 Position Summary A biomedical postdoc position provides an opportunity for early‑career researchers to gain valuable experience, develop independent research skills, and contribute to the advancement of scientific knowledge in their field of expertise. Position Key Accountabilities Plan and conduct experiments, analyze data, and prepare publications describing results. Assist in training and mentoring of lab personnel, including graduate students and other trainees. Read and evaluate literature. Possess interpersonal skills to effectively collaborate and communicate with individuals at all levels. Have strong written and oral communication skills. Perform other duties as assigned. Minimum Education Doctoral/Terminal Degree Physical Requirements Exerts up to 20 pounds of force occasionally and/or up to 10 pounds frequently and/or a negligible amount constantly to move objects. Security Sensitive 51.215 51.215 and Texas Government Code 411.094. To the extent that a position requires the holder to research, work on, or have access to critical infrastructure as defined in Texas Business and Commerce Code 117.001(2), the ability to maintain the security or integrity of the infrastructure is a minimum qualification to be hired for and to continue to be employed in that position. Personnel in such positions, and similarly situated state contractors, will be routinely reviewed to determine whether things such as criminal history or continuous connections to the government or political apparatus of a foreign adversary might prevent the applicant, employee, or contractor from being able to maintain the security or integrity of the infrastructure. A foreign adversary is a nation listed in 15 C.F.R. 791.4. Residency Requirement Employees must permanently reside and work in the State of Texas. Benefits We offer the following benefits: 100% paid medical premiums for full‑time employees. Generous time off, including holidays, preventative leave day, vacation, and sick time (approximately 37‑38 days per year). Vacation accrual increases with length of service. Retirement/pension plan. Free financial and legal counseling. Free mental health counseling services. Gym membership discounts and access to wellness programs. Employee discounts on entertainment, car rentals, cell phones, and other services. Resources for child and elder care. Additional employee benefits as available. #J-18808-Ljbffr UTHealth Houston
