Summary
The Brody laboratory in the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Michigan is looking for a highly motivated post-doctoral fellow with a strong background in biochemistry, molecular biology, mouse genetics, and/or cardiac physiology. Our research is broadly focused on the molecular signals in cardiomyocytes that underlie cardiac disease onset and progression with a particular focus on signaling by GTPases. We have a specific interest in understanding how intracellular signaling is compartmentalized and regionally controlled by lipid modifications that modulate the function of signaling molecules in various cell types of the heart to control cardiac physiology and pathogenesis. Successful candidates will utilize a combination of mouse genetics, biochemistry, and molecular and chemical biology techniques to gain insight into pathophysiological signaling mechanisms that contribute to human cardiovascular disease. Skilled and motivated scientists with an interest in molecular and cellular cardiology are strongly encouraged to apply.

Summary
Post-Doctoral Positions in Pharmacology at the University of Michigan
We are currently seeking Post-Doctoral Fellows with strong technical skills in preclinical and cellular models of drug abuse, and a broader interest in the science of drug addiction, for positions with Dr. Emily Jutkiewicz and/or Dr. John Traynor. Projects are related to the development of medications for pain and the management of opiate abuse. The selected candidates may be eligible for our NIH interdisciplinary training grant on the Biology of Drug Abuse.
The Jutkiewicz and Traynor laboratories within the Department of Pharmacology are focused on (1) using behavioral pharmacology assays to understand the analgesic and abuse-related effects of drugs on physiology and behavior, (2) designing novel medications for the management of pain and as medications for opioid abuse and (3) evaluating mechanisms of action at the molecular and behavioral level. The Department of Pharmacology has an active group of drug abuse researchers that is complemented by addiction researchers in the wider University of Michigan community. The successful candidates will have strong communication skills and clear technical expertise, with a focus on either in vitro (e.g., expression analysis, Western blots, signaling and receptor binding assays) or in vivo (e.g., operant behavior, locomotor activity) models. An ability to integrate in vivo and in vitro findings will be an advantage.

A postdoctoral position is available starting June 2023 at University of Michigan’s School for Environment and Sustainability. We are looking for a highly motivated postdoc who will work on the topic of “Investigating the role of forest characteristics in mitigating climate change effects on water quality and fish community composition.”
The candidate will work together with Drs. Runzi Wang, Karen Alofs, and Bill Currie to study how forest characteristics and climate factors jointly affect stream chemistry and fish diversity indices in the Great Lakes Basin using coupled physical-based hydrological model and data-driven model.
Potential tasks will include using data from the National River and Stream Assessment (NRSA) and open-source (e.g., remote sensing) climate and forest datasets to identify the most important climate and forest characteristics factors for water quality and fish and; applying SWAT to model how water quality reacts to the changing climate and forest management scenarios and projecting the impact on fish diversity. The position will require experience with physical-based hydrological model like Soil & Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), excellent statistical knowledge and coding skills, and knowledge in forestry, freshwater ecology, and water chemistry.

Summary
Multiple Postdoctoral positions and a Project Manager position are available as part of the Impact of Genomic Variation on Function (IGVF) consortium in the Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics at the University of Michigan Medical School in the labs of Alan Boyle, Ryan Mills, and Joshua Welch. Broadly, our labs focus on enabling biological discovery through the application of computational approaches to genomic data. Our groups at the University of Michigan represent a predictive modeling U01 as part of the $185M NHGRI IGVF project spanning 30 US research sites.
These positions will focus on methods for analyzing and integrating single-cell RNA-seq data, single-cell epigenome data, and high throughput genomic perturbation data as part of the IGVF consortium with the goal of mapping genotype and phenotype. We are specifically focused on mapping genotype to changes in gene regulation and predicting how these gene regulation changes result in an overall shift in cell states. Ultimately this predicting how these gene regulation changes results in improved understanding of abnormal disease states in disease. A unique benefit of this position is the rich set of collaborative and leadership opportunities available both at Michigan and as part of the close integration with the IGVF consortium. Importantly, we will also focus on career development of these positions with the ultimate goal of helping the postdoc develop their own independent research program.

Summary
The Welch Laboratory at the University of Michigan is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to develop and apply algorithms, machine learning methods, and statistical models for analysis of single-cell genomic data. Our research focuses on enabling biological discovery by applying novel computational approaches to genomic data. Broadly, we seek to understand what genes define the complement of cell types and cell states within healthy tissue, how cells differentiate to their final fates, and how dysregulation of genes within specific cell types contributes to human disease. The lab publishes in high-impact journals, including Cell, Nature, and Nature Biotechnology.
This postdoctoral position will focus on methods for analyzing and integrating single-cell RNA-seq, single-cell epigenome data, and spatial transcriptomic data as part of several NIH-funded-projects. We have data and biological collaborators from several different systems, including mouse bone, mouse brain, and human hematopoietic stem cells. This is such an exciting and fast-moving field that Nature Methods recently selected "Single-Cell Multimodal Omics Analysis" as the Method of the Year 2019 and "Spatial Resolved Transcriptomics" as the Method of the Year 2020.
A unique benefit of this position is the rich set of collaborative opportunities available, allowing truly interdisciplinary training. Our collaborative network includes bench scientists and computational method development colleagues within the Single-Cell Spatial Analysis Program, the Michigan Neuroscience Institute, and the Michigan Institute for Data Sciences (MIDAS). Additional opportunities for collaboration are available with faculty in the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering.
