University of California San Francisco, California invites multiple online application for Postdoctoral Fellowships in various research areas. Candidates interested in Postdoctoral Fellowships can check the details and may apply as soon as possible.
1. Postdoctoral Position in preclinical cancer research
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
A postdoctoral fellowship position for a highly motivated scientist is available in Drs. Bastian/Chen laboratory in the Helen Diller Family Cancer Center at the University of California, San Francisco. The project is focused on to study the signaling of mutant G proteins in uveal melanoma. Uveal melanoma is a rare cancer without any curative treatment options. It is genetically characterized by mutations in the Gαq signaling pathways, as our lab has previously reported (Nature: PMID: 19078957; N Engl J Med: PMID: 21083380; Oncogene: PMID: 24141786, Cancer Cell PMID: 28486107; Nature Genetics: PMID: 31253977; Oncogene: PMID: 33262460).
The candidate will help elucidate the downstream signaling, identify therapeutic targets, with the goal to identify effective therapeutic strategies, with the supports of grants from the National Cancer Institute, the Department of Defense and the Melanoma Research Alliance. The candidate will get in depth exposure to cutting edge in-vitro methods including multi-omic approaches and Crispr/Cas9 screens and use newly developed mouse models for in vivo studies.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
2. Postdoctoral Position in COVID County Policies and Health
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Social Policies for Health Equity Research (SPHERE) program at UCSF seeks a postdoctoral fellow to conduct research on the effects of COVID-19 social and economic policies on health inequities. The COVID-19 pandemic prompted rapid and innovative policymaking around the world at the national, regional, and local levels. Researchers at SPHERE are creating a national database of local COVID-19-related public health and social policies.
The U.S. COVID-19 County Policy (UCCP) Database aims to provide a reliable record of what local governments have done in response to the pandemic. The postdoctoral fellow will link the policy database with national health data sets that provide individual-level information on mental health and healthcare utilization to assess how these pandemic-era policies affected these outcomes, particularly health inequities.

3. Postdoctoral Position in UCSF Drug Research
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
A postdoc research opportunity is available in the Drug Research Unit. The participant will conduct research on quantitative analysis of drugs including, but not limited to, antimalarials and antivirals using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and other analytical methods. A current project (funded by NIH, 1R21 AI153848-01A1) is to explore two-dimensional liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method to quantify unbound antimalarial drugs in human plasma. The participant may also involve in pharmacokinetic data analysis including non-compartment analysis using WinNonlin® or modeling study using NONMEM®.
Under the guidance of the mentor/Unit Co-directors, the participant will learn about quantitative analytical method development and validations and complex pharmacokinetic data analysis. The fellow will also be encouraged to take advantage of other training and learning opportunities within the Department of Clinical Pharmacy, the School of Pharmacy, and other related entities at UCSF. The fellow will have opportunities to publish the work in professional journals and/or present data at professional meetings.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
4. Postdoctoral Position in Medicinal/ Analytical Chemistry
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
This research investigation will enable the selected scientist to leverage existing scientific knowledge and expertise while creating opportunities for innovation in new areas, especially to evaluate the chemical reactivity of drugs and drug products to form nitrosamines. Identification of methods to either remove the formed nitrosamines or more challengingly develop novel approaches to prevent the formation of nitrosamines will be a major focus area of this research. Note that the post-doctoral position is a hands-in laboratory-based position.

6. Postdoctoral Position in Neurophysiology of Non motor symptoms in Parkinson’s using sensing enabled pacemakers
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Dr Simon Little (https://littlelab.ucsf.edu/) is seeking a talented postdoctoral student to study the neurophysiology of motivation and non motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease using sensing-enabled, deep brain stimulator pacemakers towards automated optimization of adaptive, personalized, brain stimulation. Dr Little and his lab (plus collaborators including Phil Starr) have pioneered adaptive deep brain stimulation and chronic neural sensing for movement disorders and are now working at the forefront of studies to develop personalized stimulation therapies for patients. This includes research to understand the link between cortico-basal network physiology and fundamental behavior, physiological biomarker discovery and testing of closed-loop stimulation strategies for neurological patients.

13. Postdoctoral Position in Investigating Mechanisms of Dysregulated Immune Tolerance in Autoimmunity
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Ashouri Lab has an opening for a postdoctoral researcher who is interested in understanding how immune tolerance is broken in autoimmune diseases. Our lab is focused on advancing our knowledge of T cell signaling and repertoire thresholds required for immune tolerance. We study how the complex molecular interactions between cells alter immune health and the impact dysregulation in these communication pathways has on immune mediated diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis. We utilize mouse models, human samples, along with molecular, cell-based, genetic, and multi-omic technologies including paired single-cell RNA and TCR-sequencing. A major driving force of the lab is to identify the TCR specificities, gene expression profile, and signaling networks of cells involved in antigen recognition in autoimmune diseases.
