University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
is a leading public research university. The
School of Medicine
is dedicated to patient care, education, and research. Within the Kelada Lab, a post‑doctoral research associate will investigate gene‑environment interactions involving air pollution and respiratory disease.
Position Summary The Kelada Lab seeks a post‑doctoral research associate to lead efforts in uncovering mechanistic links between the genome, epigenome, gene expression, and air pollutant‑induced airway inflammation phenotypes in a mouse model system. The role will involve generating and analyzing datasets from genetically diverse Collaborative Cross mice, mapping ozone‑response quantitative trait loci (QTL), and profiling gene expression and chromatin accessibility in key cell types.
Minimum Education and Experience Requirements PhD in Genetics or a related field.
Required Qualifications, Competencies, and Experience Experience with quantitative genetic analysis (QTL mapping).
Preferred Qualifications, Competencies, and Experience Experience with mouse models of human disease Experience with flow cytometry Candidates should be self‑motivated, enthusiastic, able to work in a teamwork environment, and have strong communication skills.
Special Physical/Mental Requirements None.
Special Instructions For information on UNC Postdoctoral Benefits and Services, see the UNC Postdoctoral website. Please provide a sample of scientific writing from graduate training (e.g., published manuscript or chapter from dissertation) in the “Writing Sample” option for required documents.
