• CSS Postdoctoral Fellowship

  The Hamner Institutes for Health Sciences in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina is seeking a postdoctoral fellow in its Program in Chemical Safety Sciences to study DNA damage response pathways. Under supervisions by both experimental and computational biologists, the successful candidate will use integrated systems biology approach to develop in vitro assays and in silico models for toxicity pathway perturbation by genotoxic agents.
  Applicants should have a Ph.D. or equivalent in biology, toxicology, or related discipline, supplemented with evidence of mathematical, programming, and modeling skills, or a Ph.D. in chemical/biomedical engineering, mathematics, or physics with sufficient training in molecular and cell biology. Excellent communication skills and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team will be essential.

  Qualified candidates need to submit their resume, three letters of recommendation using the optional Reference Letter Form and Postdoctoral application which can be found at http://www.thehamner.org/careers/current-openings/index.html to kolson@thehamner.org or fax 919-558-1430. Please refer to the "CSS Postdoctoral Fellowship" position in your response or your application will not be considered. EEO/AA

• Assistant Investigator for in vitro Genotoxicity Research

  The Hamner Institutes for Health Sciences is seeking an enthusiastic and innovative individual to lead a research effort to examine dose-dependencies of DNA-damage stress response pathway function with different classes of compounds. The research will be closely aligned with new testing and risk assessment initiatives proposed in the 2007 NRC report, Toxicity Testing in the 21st Century: A Vision and A Strategy.  Tools involved in the research include genomics, high content assay (HCA), and computational systems modeling.

  Ph.D., Sc.D., DVM and/or MD plus 2-3 years of postdoctoral training and at least 5-7 years of research experience is required. Previous experience with DNA-damage/repair pathways, mutational analysis, and/or dose response modeling is preferred.

  Qualified candidates need to submit their resume and general application which can be found at http://www.thehamner.org/careers/current-openings/index.html to kolson@thehamner.org or fax 919-558-1430. EEO/AA
