Postdoctoral Fellow, Inflammation Models Chicago, IL (Onsite) The Opportunity seeking exceptional early-career scientists with backgrounds in biology, immunology, and translational or clinical research to join our growing team as a Postdoctoral Fellow. For this position, we are looking for candidates with a focus on developing animal models of inflammation, with an emphasis on neural, periodontal, and musculoskeletal tissues. The ideal candidate will have experience in: Developing and characterizing animal models of acute and chronic inflammation, especially those affecting neural, periodontal and musculoskeletal systems Applying molecular biology techniques to analyze, visualize, and track inflammatory processes Working in cross-disciplinary teams and contributing to the development of innovative biological measurement tools Postdoctoral Fellows at Biohub are embedded in generously funded, interdisciplinary teams and are expected to contribute hands-on to research and technology development. Postdoctoral Fellows collaborate closely with scientists and engineers to accelerate discovery, diagnostics, and therapeutic strategies aligned with the Biohubs mission. What You'll Do Drive innovative research related to inflammation biology in animal models. Design and execute studies involving the nervous and/or musculoskeletal systems. Collaborate across disciplines with colleagues in engineering, omics, and clinical translation. Disseminate research findings via publications, preprints (e.g., bioRxiv, medRxiv), and open-source repositories (e.g., GitHub). Uphold the Biohubs values of open science, teamwork, and scholarly excellence. What You'll Bring Essential - A PhD, MD, or DVM 2 years of hands-on experience with animal models. At least 2 years of molecular biology experience. A collaborative mindset and strong communication skills. Nice to have - 1 or more years of experience with neural, periodontal or musculoskeletal systems. 1 or more years of experience related to inflammation immunology. Previous experiences with mass spectrometry-based proteomics and/or metabolomics.
