Position Description: | The University of Iowa is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar to join an NIH-funded R01 project studying the role of platelet, neutrophil and endothelial cell activation in thrombosis during aging in mouse models and humans and whether caloric restriction protects. The successful candidate will join our Thrombosis/Vascular Biology Research Group, which uses novel genetic models to study mechanisms of thrombosis related to risk factors such as aging, diabetes, cancer, or infection. Candidates must have an MD and/or PhD degree, be a creative and motivated scientist planning a long-term career in scientific research, and possess a strong background in vascular biology, biochemistry, physiology, and/or molecular biology. Experience is designing mechanistic approaches in humans or animals is required. Experience in studying endothelial dysfunction or other vascular injury model or MULTI OMICS approaches will also be considered. Scholars will utilize in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo research models, as well as state of the art microscopy, flowcytometry and genomic approaches. They will acquire new complementary skills in platelet and vascular cell physiology, small animal surgery, molecular techniques, and cell base assays. Trainees also will have the opportunity to participate in the design, execution, and interpretation of research studies with human subjects. |
