Assistant Professor: Chemist for LNP-mRNA drugs
The Dahlman Lab at Georgia Tech and the Emory School of Medicine (dahlmanlab.org) develops nanoparticles that deliver mRNA and siRNA drugs. We design new technologies at the interface of big data, genomics, and RNA therapies. For example, the lab pioneered high-throughput nanoparticle
assays that utilize DNA barcoding to quantify how thousands of distinct lipid nanoparticles deliver RNA and DNA drugs in vivo instead of evaluating them in cell culture. We are hiring a non-tenure-track Assistant Professor to develop novel chemistries for LNP-mRNA drugs.
Our work has led to high-profile publications. Since starting in 2016, the lab has published drug delivery- or gene editing-related manuscripts in Nature, Science, Nature Nanotechnology, Nature Biomedical Engineering, Nature Reviews Genetics, Nature Chemistry, Nature Communications, Advanced Materials, PNAS, JACS, Scientific American, and other high-impact journals. Our work has
been translational, and our alumni have exciting careers. We work with leading biotechs/pharmas who want to move RNA drugs into the clinic. Our alumni are also in high demand. They have started companies, become venture capitalists, started academic labs, and work at some of the most cuttingedge
biotechs/pharmas in the field.
We need an Assistant Professor to develop new chemistries for nanoparticles and other RNA delivery systems. We will hire a great chemist who is also a great teammate. An ideal candidate must be able to evaluate established synthetic routes, develop new synthetic routes, and work within a fastpaced,
collaborative team of biologists, engineers, technology developers, and biochemists.
This is an exciting opportunity for a few reasons. First, you will be a member of a fun and diverse group. Our lab members have disparate educational backgrounds and come from all over the world.
Second, you will develop next-generation RNA drugs, which could have a substantial impact on medicine over the coming decades. Relatedly, you will work on projects designed to reach the clinic. Third, the lab
is working on the scaleup and manufacturing of LNPs; you will be on the ground floor of this new effort.
Finally, the Georgia Tech and Emory Medical School Department of Biomedical Engineering is highly ranked (#2 for undergraduate and graduate Biomedical Engineering). It is located in Atlanta, a thriving city with major cultural, professional, and athletic institutions. Atlanta offers great weather, food, music,
hiking, and biking. Our lab is located in HSRB-II, a beautiful new building embedded with biologists, engineers, and clinicians. Relatedly, >45,000 ft2 of new biotech incubator space will be completed by 2024, which will further increase our ability to translate science. Finally, the lab is a happy, supportive, and inclusive environment. We care deeply about all our lab members as human beings; in addition to
the scientific work, we actively focus on how to create ideas and evaluate them quickly, how to write professionally, and how to maximize work-life balance and mental health.
Applicants will be evaluated in the order they are received. After application is submited on the Emory website please email james.dahlman@emory.edu.

Emory seeks a physiatrist to join the expanding PM&R team at Grady Memorial Hospital, Atlanta’s public hospital. The position will serve to primarily establish a MSK Outpatient service but will also help cover and support the PM&R inpatient consult service as needed. The Stroke and Trauma Centers are marquee services for Grady and both are on a growth curve. Each year approximately 500 stroke patients are discharged from Grady directly to home. The majority of these patients need follow up care. A large portion of these patients continue to suffer from ICU-acquired weakness, cognitive dysfunction, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Many of them do not understand the pathophysiology of their medical condition or grasp their secondary prevention strategy and are therefore, non-compliant. If they have a family, many questions and concerns of the caregivers have no systematic process to address their concerns or to coordinate care. We aim to develop outpatient clinic capacity to help provide care for patients past the acute hospital setting.

Laboratory Description
Our laboratory centers on the metabolic programs that contribute to neutrophil biology in health and disease. Neutrophils rely primarily on glycolysis for energy production but it is increasingly recognized that mitochondrial metabolic programs contribute to many neutrophil effector functions. We are currently focused on mitochondrial beta-oxidation of long chain fatty acids, as this metabolic program is essential for optimal neutrophil chemotaxis and trafficking to the site of infection in a mouse model of bacterial pneumonia. While current work centers on ex vivo analyses of human neutrophils, mouse neutrophils, and mouse models of bacterial pneumonia and lung injury, we plan to begin studies of mitochondrial metabolism in neutrophils isolated from persons with pneumonia, sepsis, and acute respiratory distress syndrome.
