Charlottesville, Virginia, United States University of Virginia Full time


The Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology & Oncology, at the University of Virginia seeks multiple postdoctoral research associates to join the research team within the Chalfant laboratory.

The start date of this position is as soon as possible. The position will be under the supervision of Dr. Charles E. Chalfant.

The Chalfant laboratory has a strong track-record of extramural funding and currently has multiple extramural grants from both the National Institutes of Health and the Veterans Administration.

These grants focus on advancing two specific molecular mechanisms, RNA splicing and lipid signaling, as they relate to cancer, cardiovascular disease, wound healing, infectious disease, and diabetes.

The goal is to identify key mechanisms dysregulate in these diseases that can be precisely targeted to better clinical outcomes.

The laboratory also has the goal of therapeutic development to these targets.

The ideal candidate should possess substantial knowledge and skills to foster innovative ideas and interests in one of these areas with a solid track-record of research productivity during their PhD and/or initial postdoctoral training.

Background in molecular biology (e.g., CRISPR/Cas9, lentivirus, adenovirus), lipid signaling, lipidomics, or RNA splicing as well as training others is a plus.

Excellent organizational and communication skills (both written and verbal) are required as is an ability to work independently and cross-culturally in diverse environments.

The incumbent will perform research in either lipid signaling and RNA splicing as these processes relate to cancer, precision medicine, wound healing, diabetes, infectious diseases, and cardiovascular disease.

Multiple research projects in these areas are available.

A successful candidate will be expected to develop molecular skills and assays such as high through-put assays for drug discovery, secondary screening assays, cell models, and/or novel Genetically Engineered Mouse Models (GEMMs) not currently available in the laboratory.

The candidate will be fully funded by funds from grants to Dr. Chalfant from the National Institutes of Health.

It is expected that through expansion of research ideas in the aforementioned research areas, the candidate will develop additional skills, write grants, and construct/present research papers working towards an independent role over the next 3 to 5 years.
