HMS Postdoctoral Fellow - Metabolic Regulation, Cancer and Aging (Haigis Lab)

HMS Postdoctoral Fellow – Metabolic Regulation, Cancer and Aging (Haigis Lab) Harvard University · Harvard Medical School, Department of Cell Biology United States About This Opportunity Harvard University advertises HMS Postdoctoral Fellow – Metabolic Regulation, Cancer and Aging (Haigis Lab), an academic opportunity focusing on Metabolic regulation in aging and disease, including cancer and immune dysfunction in Cambridge. The Haigis laboratory in Harvard Medical School’s Department of Cell Biology seeks a postdoctoral researcher to examine the molecular foundations of metabolism in health, aging and disease. The group studies newly identified metabolic pathways using metabolomics, genetic approaches and biochemical analysis, investigating relevance to cancer and immune dysfunction. The fellow will develop a lab-aligned research project with Dr Marcia Haigis, conduct experiments and analyses, prepare grant and fellowship applications and scholarly manuscripts, mentor lab members and take part in a collaborative research environment. The advert describes a salaried, benefits-eligible one-year position potentially extendable if funding and performance allow. Who This Opportunity Is Best Suited For: Applicants interested in developing research focused on Metabolic regulation in aging and disease, including cancer and immune dysfunction are the clearest thematic audience. A strong match on topic is not a substitute for checking the actual doctorate, publication, methodological or experience requirements set by the employer. Documented qualifications and preparation include: PhD or MD/PhD in cell biology, molecular biology, chemistry or a related discipline; useful experience includes mass spectrometry, metabolic profiling, protein purification, genetics, mouse physiology, cancer biology or structural biology. Potential Challenges / Who May Find It Less Suitable: Material practical considerations include the stated one-year appointment with potential extension duration, Full time, the currently unresolved final official application endpoint. Overall Opportunity Assessment: This opportunity is distinguished by its focus on Metabolic regulation in aging and disease, including cancer and immune dysfunction. Its documented methods and collaborations provide a concrete basis for assessing methodological fit; application and financial details should be confirmed against the institution’s vacancy or programme instructions.
