3. Postdoctoral Positions
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowships:
This project focuses on characterizing the visual-cognitive mechanisms underlying radiological expertise in lung nodule detection. The project is funded by an NIH R01 grant from the National Cancer Institute. Candidates should have a PhD with expertise in one of more of the following areas: perception, visual attention, object recognition, psychophysical methods, image processing and analysis, computational modeling. Candidates should be fluent and versatile at coding in MATLAB and/or Python, ideally with a background in neuroscience, psychology, data science, computer science or biomedical engineering. We seek individuals who enjoy working on challenging problems with enthusiasm and creative rigor in a collaborative team-based environment. The postdoctoral fellow will also have opportunities to pursue collaborative projects on human vision and computational neuroscience. This position is open to both US citizens and foreign nationals. Start date is flexible.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
4. Postdoctoral Positions
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowships:
The Vanderbilt Genomic Medicine Training Program (VGM) includes a major focus in pharmacogenomics, precision phenotyping, medical informatics, and disease-based genomics. The program has 32 highly collaborative and well-funded faculty preceptors who team up to provide both basic and clinical research training opportunities to both Ph.D.-level and M.D.-level postdoctoral fellows. Trainees will participate in rotations, internships, seminars, journal clubs, and retreats and interact with other trainees and faculty. Under Vanderbilt’s Biomedical Research Education and Training (BRET) Office, the program will provide RCR training, high-standard Individual Development Plans (IDP), and the Career Development programs.

5. Postdoctoral Positions
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowships:
The laboratory of Jens Meiler is looking immediately for outstanding postdoctoral candidates that will join a team of graduate and post-graduate researchers in the field of structure-based drug design. Research in our laboratory seeks to fuse computational and experimental efforts to investigate proteins, the fundamental molecules of biology, and their interactions with small molecule substrates, therapeutics, or probes. Specifically, the successful applicant would integrate and develop the drug design capabilities of a crowd-sourced game based on the Rosetta macromolecular structural modeling package – to test the hypothesis that citizen scientists can contribute to drug development. Qualified applicants should have a PhD in Biology, Chemistry, Math, Physics or Computer Science.

6. Postdoctoral Positions
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowships:
Dr. Schwartz’s research studies seek to understand the molecular mechanisms and pathogenesis underlying pediatric myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), specifically those syndromes caused by germline mutations in SAMD9 and SAMD9L. His current focus is to better understand the biological consequences of SAMD9 and SAMD9L mutations in MDS through genomic and functional investigations in an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) model system of pediatric MDS. The Schwartz lab wishes to hire a post-doctoral fellow interested in studying hematopoietic biology of myeloid neoplasms. They should have a firm acumen of basic molecular biology techniques and cell culture. Not required, but would be of great benefit: knowledge of iPSC culture, CRISPR design, and/or experience with bioinformatic analysis of next-generation sequencing data.

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowships:
The Data Science Institute (DSI) at Vanderbilt University, https://www.vanderbilt.edu/datascience, invites applications for its first cohort of applied deep learning postdoctoral fellows. Fellows will be part of an interdisciplinary Deep Learning Initiative to explore the application of transformers and other models to problems from multiple disciplines. Fellows will serve as collaborators on research projects as part of a team of researchers, data scientists, graduate students studying data science, and undergraduates. Fellows will have access to compute infrastructure including two DGX A100s for model fitting and inference. Strong candidates will have backgrounds in applying deep learning to their area of research and a strong interest in developing greater expertise in the application of deep learning to a broader range of research problems.

9. Postdoctoral Positions
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowships:
The Ayala lab is seeking a post-doctoral fellow interested in mechanisms regulating feeding behavior and body weight. Research in the lab focuses on mechanisms by which the incretin hormone Glucagon-like peptide-1 (Glp1) and Glp1 receptor (Glp1r) agonists target the central nervous system to regulate caloric intake, feeding behavior, and body weight. We approach this using state-of-the-art techniques at the intersection between whole-body physiology, metabolism, and neuroscience in mouse models. Techniques to which you will be exposed include metabolic phenotyping, DREADD/optogenetics, fiber photometry, behavioral analyses. Current projects include: 1. Investigation of molecular mechanisms in the hypothalamus targeted by Glp1r agonists to reduce food intake/body weight. 2. Interrogating how Glp1r agonists and Fibroblast Growth Factor-21 (FGF21) regulate carbohydrate consumption. 3. Investigating the role of Glp1 producing neurons in the brainstem in the regulation of feeding behavior in response to metabolic and psychogenic stressors.
