Seeking Postdoctoral Research Fellow to work on cutting-edge projects of both fundamental biological significance and translational/clinical importance involving mitochondrial biology and cell death. The work, which is funded by several NIH grants, seeks: (a) to create a more unified model of cell death that mechanistically integrates several “individual” mitochondrial-dependent cell death programs; and (b) to test this paradigm using in vivo mouse models of heart disease and cancer. Applicants must possess Ph.D. and/or M.D. degrees and first-author in-depth and impactful publications. Strong skills are required in several of the following areas: (a) molecular and cellular biology; (b) biochemistry; ( c) genome/proteome-wide screens and informatics; (d) mitochondrial biology; and (e) complex genetic mouse models. Important personal strengths include the ability to think independently, creatively and critically, formulate new ideas, design and execute informative experiments, trouble-shoot those experiments, write and present clearly, and, importantly, the integrity, perseverance, and drive to arrive at scientific truth. The lab environment is intellectually robust, collaborative, and supportive. Salary will be commensurate with experience and accomplishments and exceeding NIH guidelines. The lab has a track-record of significant publications (see https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=kitsis+rn&sort=date). The lab also has a track-record of placing trainees in high quality positions in academia, biotech, and pharma, although this postdoctoral training experience is primarily intended for individuals who aspire to independent tenure-track academic faculty positions.

Special Instructions:
The application package should consist of a single PDF comprising: (a) cover letter briefly describing the applicant’s background and the basis for interest in this position; (b) curriculum vitae; © statement of research Interests and long-term career goals; and (d) names, titles, and e-mail addresses of 3 references who are familiar with the applicant’s research, one of whom should be his/her PhD advisor. This PDF should be e-mailed to Dr. Richard N. Kitsis, Professor, Departments of Cell Biology and Medicine, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York City at richard.kitsis@einsteinmed.edu
