Approaches that capitalize on big data, immune modulation, or cell-based therapies are encouraged. The candidate is expected to bring an innovative, externally funded research program and to engage in multidisciplinary teams. Faculty appointment will be in the Department of Pediatrics within Emory University School of Medicine. We offer a highly interactive collegial research environment with state-of-the-art facilities, as well as proximity to and collaborations with Georgia Institute of Technology, Morehouse School of Medicine, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Emory Brain Health Center, the Goizueta Institute @Emory Brain Health, and Emory National Primate Research Center. Please visit our websites for more information about the Department of Pediatrics or Research. Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and Emory University have worked together since 1956, facilitating leading-edge pediatric research, training, and innovation. Together, our partnership advances research and facilitates evidence-based quality care for children. The Emory Department of Pediatrics continues to be ranked in the top five pediatric departments in National Institutes of Health research funding. This job opportunity is part of our ambitious $200M investment to substantially grow our team of world-class child health researchers.

Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta Cardiology is offering Advanced Training in Pediatric Cardiology in several subspecialties including (but not limited to) Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care; Pediatric Electrophysiology; Pediatric Interventional Catheterization; Pediatric Heart Failure and Transplantation; Pediatric Echocardiography and Imaging; and Adult Congenital Heart Disease. Interested candidates must have completed a 3 year core fellowship (or be in their 3rd year) in Pediatric Cardiology. These are one-year appointments with Sibley Heart Center Cardiology and Emory University School of Medicine.

We seek highly motivated Postdocs to join the O’Doherty lab. Our lab studies HIV persistence and what drives the HIV reservoir to contract and expand. In other words, why do some HIV infected cells die while others divide? We probe mechanisms that underlie this phenomenon by studying changes in HIV proviral sequences over time in T cells and their subsets. We then perform in vitro experiments to test our hypotheses using a barcoded virus that enables us to track the fate of individual proviruses in greater depth. While prior work suggests that the majority of the reservoir resides in the antigen experienced memory CD4+ T cells our work suggests that the antigen inexperienced naive T cells are the real reservoir in disguise. Our findings suggest despite the small size of the naïve reservoir, it has an outsized impact on HIV persistence due to its inherent properties that make it an ideal reservoir. We recently became interested in the drivers of increased hematopoiesis that is observed in Sickle Cell Disease. We aim to probe the role of inflammation and anemia on hematopoiesis in these individuals using an ex vivo culture systems. We can use this model to study the effect of different modulators on inflammation. Ultimately, we hope this will improve care for individuals with Sickle Cell Disease.   We offer a stimulating environment and are open to new ideas to explain phenomena related to these projects.   Positions are temporary appointments as a research trainee. The initial appointment is for one year, renewal expected if progress is satisfactory and funds are available. Appointments cannot exceed five years. MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS: A doctoral degree or equivalent (Ph.D., M.D., ScD., D.V.M., DDS etc) in an appropriate field. Excellent scientific writing ability and strong oral communication skills. The ability to work effectively and collegially with colleagues. Additional qualifications as specified by the Principal Investigator.   PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS: Ph.D. in virology, molecular biology, OR bioinformatics.   Applications should include 1) a cover letter that describes why they want to join our team and the research questions they are interested in studying 2) a CV or Resume, and 3) a list of three references with complete contact information

The Medina Lab in the Department of Psychology at Emory University is seeking a postdoctoral researcher. Our lab examines how we combine information from the senses to perceive our bodies, and how perceptual processes and their underlying neural representations are altered subsequent to brain damage. Our research uses a variety of techniques including cognitive neuropsychological studies, functional neuroimaging, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and psychophysical/behavioral methods. Our lab has access to multiple 3T and one 7T scanner, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and brain-damaged individuals active in research. The postdoctoral researcher will take a lead role in designing and implementing studies using some of the above techniques. Topics include sensorimotor plasticity, multisensory integration, perceptual illusions, embodiment, touch and proprioception. The initial appointment is for one year, renewal expected if progress is satisfactory and funds are available.   We strongly encourage potential applicants to contact Dr. Medina (jared.medina@emory.edu) before applying. Each applicant should submit a CV/ Resume, a cover letter (including a summary of current work) and contact information for three references.   Review of applications will begin on Friday, February 16th   JOB DESCRIPTION: Helps design and conduct research within a specified field while receiving advanced training from a designated Principal Investigator to enhance professional skills and research independence needed for pursuit of a career. The specific area of research in which the trainee is mentored is determined by the department and laboratory of the Postdoc. Designs and evaluates experiments. Develops new ideas that promote current research. Prepares and publishes scientific manuscripts under the direction of the Principal Investigator. May be responsible for operation of specific equipment. May teach techniques to others, train, and supervise research staff. Positions are temporary appointments as a research trainee. The initial appointment is for one year, renewal expected if progress is satisfactory and funds are available. Appointments cannot exceed five years. MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS: A doctoral degree or equivalent (Ph.D., M.D., ScD., D.V.M., DDS etc) in an appropriate field. Excellent scientific writing ability and strong oral communication skills. The ability to work effectively and collegially with colleagues. Additional qualifications as specified by the Principal Investigator.

The Learning, Understanding, Memory, & Neurodevelopment Lab (LUMeN Lab, PI: Dr. Alexandra Cohen) in the Department of Psychology at Emory University (Atlanta, GA) is seeking a full-time Postdoctoral Fellow to work on studies examining how motivation and emotion influence learning, memory, and brain function across development. Projects will include analysis of fMRI and ecological momentary assessment data from an NIH-funded study examining neurocognitive mechanisms of reward-motivated memory and behaviors across development.   Application review will take place on a rolling basis until the position is filled. Applications from members of groups underrepresented in science are encouraged.
