Postdoctoral Fellows

Interested applicants should contact Dr. Kimmey and include a cover letter that includes a description of your research experience and the research you want to carry out in the lab, and your CV. Postdoctoral fellows must have done their PhD in a microbiology or molecular biology related field. Experience with hypothesis-driven research in microbiology, pathogenesis, immunology, circadian biology or cell biology is required. Our lab is not a good fit for applicants interested in metagenomics, clinical surveillance/epidemiology, antibiotic screening etc.

For description of a former advertisement, click here* Though we are not accepting applications via that posting anymore, we do have an opening for a postdoctoral fellow with expertise in one of our lab's area of research (e.g. molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis, circadian biology, cellular immunology). If you feel you are a good fit for the lab, please send Dr. Kimmey an email with the requested materials.
