Post Doctoral Associate - Brown Borg Lab

University of North Dakota

A post-doctoral position at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences, Grand Forks, ND, is available immediately to study cellular, genetic and behavioral aspects of age-related dysfunction. There are two ongoing projects. One study focuses on the role of muscle and inflammation in the onset and progression of frailty. The other study focuses on mechanisms related to liver disease resistance following exposure to high fat. Both projects use long-living mouse models and a combination of either behavioral, immunological, cellular or molecular methods to generate outcomes.

Compensation and Appointment: Position:  Postdoctoral Research Fellow,

Renumeration / Salary: $43,000-$48,000/year; commensurate with qualifications

Benefits: Includes single or family health care coverage (premiums paid for by the university), basic life insurance, EAP, retirement plan, tuition waiver.
