The division conducts multidisciplinary clinical and translational research with state-of-the art equipment and cutting-edge technology for diseases and disorders across the lifespan. A fully-funded Postdoctoral Fellow position is available with Dr. Alison Lee at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in NYC. Funding is guaranteed for 2 years with potential for further support. Dr. Lee’s research leverages an NIH-funded ongoing pregnancy cohort study in Kintampo, Ghana (The Ghana Randomized Air Pollution and Health Study, GRAPHS) investigating the impact of perinatal exposures (both chemical and non-chemical) on maternal-child health broadly and the programming of chronic disease risk. Dr. Lee’s community-engaged and solutions-oriented research focuses on understanding how exposure to air pollution, humid-heat, and precipitation/drought over pregnancy and early childhood program future health. Research studies consider a range of outcomes including growth, lung health and cardiovascular health in both mothers and children. Mechanisms examined include a specific focus on epigenetic mechanisms including DNA methylation, non-coding microRNAs and long noncoding RNAs, and extracellular vesicle communications. Metabolomics and microbiome are also of interest. The successful postdoc will lead epidemiology and computational investigations of how these high-resolution exposures, and molecular mechanisms, are associated with human health. Examples Of Active Projects Include Early life household air pollution, metal composition and cardiovascular health: Evidence from GRAPHS (R01 ES034433) Child lung development following a cookstove intervention: Evidence from GRAPHS (R01 ES026991) Developing climate cohorts to understand health associations and resilience and susceptibility factors in Ghana (R01 ES034433-02S1) Excellent written and oral communication skills and a willingness to work as part of a collaborative team are required. Candidates will be responsible for moving forward several projects, assisting with supervision of research coordinators, and maintaining active collaborations with other labs and universities. Team: The fellow will work closely with Dr. Lee and will be part of an interdisciplinary team of environmental epidemiologists, epigeneticists, and computational biologists dedicated to environmental health investigations. Responsibilities Qualifications: Applicants should possess an M.D. or Ph.D. in Environmental and/or Molecular Epidemiology, or alternatively, in other relevant disciplines, such as Statistics/Biostatistics, Computational Biology, Machine Learning, or Bioinformatics, with relevant previous work and interest in environmental health. Strong quantitative skills, practical experience working with complex epidemiology data, familiarity with the R statistical software packages and excellent oral communication and scientific writing are also necessary. Experience with high dimensional molecular data such as Illumina BeadChip methylation (450K, 850K or EPIC) and RNA-seq data is strongly preferred. Principal Investigator: Alison Lee, MD, MS, Associate Professor of Medicine, Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine Application Interested individuals should send a cover letter, curriculum vitae, two sample publications, and the names/phone numbers of three people who could provide letters of reference by email to Ms. Dionne Winfield, Program Manager: View email address on click.appcast.io .
