The National Postdoctoral Association (NPA) has established six Core Competencies to offer guidance to individual postdoctoral scholars who must seek out relevant training experiences and to the mentors, institutions, and other advisors who provide this training.
The Office of Postdoctoral Affairs in the UCLA Biosciences invites you to apply to UCLA Bio-Launch, a recruitment initiative for bioscience researchers. This program includes professional development workshops, networking opportunities, and a faculty matching service.

The Cory-Slechta/Sobolewski laboratories studies the impact of environmental chemical exposures on brain and behavior. Current emphasis includes projects on the impact of developmental exposure to ultrafine particle matter air pollution and other air contaminants linked to brain metal dyshomeostasis and neurodevelopmental disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Our laboratory seeks a postdoctoral fellow interested in air pollution, inhalational toxicology and neuroscience. Ongoing projects include determinations of the ability of ultrafine metal nanoparticle inhalation exposures, particularly iron and copper, to reproduce the neurotoxicity seen with ambient ultrafine particulate matter exposures. Our projects involve inhalational exposures, microscopy, wet lab assays, proteomics, and behavioral assessments.
Candidates should be highly motivated and have completed a doctorate (Ph.D.) level degree. The successful candidate should have documented success in research including publications in international journals on relevant topics. Compensation follows NIH salary guidelines and fellows may be awarded an NIH Training Fellowship. The University of Rochester Medical Center provides a generous package of fringe benefits.
Applicants should submit an application package that includes a cover letter, CV, up to 2 relevant prior publications, and contact information for three references to Deborah Cory-Slechta (deborah_cory-slechta@urmc.rochester.edu).
The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth Houston) is currently seeking postdoctoral candidates for a National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS)-funded T32 trauma research fellowship in the following research areas: traumatic brain injury, resuscitation (including hemorrhagic shock), burn, trauma-induced coagulopathy and cellular therapies. These are two year fellowships devoted to clinical or translational research. The goal of this comprehensive program is to provide mentorship as well as didactic and practical training in clinical and translational research, resulting in significant contributions to the care of traumatically-injured patients and future academic independence.
The position requires an MD, DO, or PhD and be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident. Please see the attached document for more information regarding the fellowship position and how to apply. We have 1-3 positions available per year. Application deadline is March 1.
