  Dr. Hansen’ lab studies the interactions between satellite cells and the vasculature. Satellite cells are skeletal muscle progenitor cells that are known to play an important role in muscle repair after injury and adaptation to exercise. However, the Hansen lab focuses on a previously underexplored role of satellite cells in vascular growth. They have found that satellite cells, when activated, produced a number of chemoattractant growth factors that drive the migration of vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells which in an important factor in the growth and development of blood vessels. This area is of particular interest in the context of peripheral artery disease (PAD), where patients suffer from ischemic tissue damage but treatment options are still limited. We have found that the effectiveness of exercise therapy in PAD is related to satellite cell. We are currently using single cell sequencing techniques to explore satellite cell biology in the context of exercise with the hope of development more optimal exercise regimens.   This position would be focused on studying satellite cell heterogeneity and transcriptional regulation in response to exercise therapy.  The project will utilize mouse models of vascular growth, satellite cell ablation, and running as well biopsies from PAD patients undergoing exercise therapy. Tasks will include animal model, cell isolation and sorting, single cell sequencing, and computational analysis using R and other software to determine parameters such as cell clusters and pathway enrichment networks.      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 Department of Pediatrics’ Division of Pediatric Palliative Care at Emory University in Atlanta in conjunction with Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, is seeking to hire an Inpatient Palliative Care (Pediatric Advanced Care Team - PACT) Psychologist.   This academically-appointed position will report to the Division Chief of Pediatric Palliative Care and the Medical Psychology Program Manager within the Center for Behavioral and Mental Health Center, and serve as a critical member of the growing and respected PACT team in this large pediatric healthcare system.   PACT serves children with all types of serious medical illnesses including cardiac, neurologic, oncologic and genetic conditions, organ transplant recipients, and patients who are technology-dependent in all inpatient services areas of Children’s.   Successful candidates should demonstrate competency in psychology and good interpersonal skills, allowing for productive interactions with other providers, bedside nurses, creative arts therapists, child life specialists, chaplains, and caregivers. The ability to function within an interdisciplinary team is paramount, as this psychologist will work with PACT physicians, nurse practitioners, and social workers.   PACT patients needing enhanced psychological support will be identified by the palliative care team, seen by the inpatient psychologist, and followed outpatient by the PACT psychologist upon discharge as needed. Outpatient appointments will be in-person or via telehealth.   Specific clinical training and skills related to the assessment and intervention of psychosocial needs associated with medical conditions and in particular, serious illness, are necessary.   Experience managing patients with total pain (physical, psychologic, spiritual, and social), psychologic distress secondary to complex, chronic illness, and/or experience with management of grief, bereavement, and end-of-life care are ideal qualifications.   These full-time positions are split between clinical care and administrative time.   Flexibility to work at Egleston & Scottish Rite campuses is important.   Psychology applicants should have a Ph.D. or Psy.D. from an APA/CPA accredited program, have completed an APA accredited child internship, and must obtain board certification within hospital timelines.   The BMH therapist should be a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.   Applicants must have expertise in assessing & treating children and adolescents using evidence-based approaches. Applicants should be licensed/ licensed-eligible in GA prior to employment.   Additional Information: Employment will be through the Emory + Children's Pediatric Institute. The Emory + Children’s Pediatric Institute is an affiliation between Emory University and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta that is improving the lives of children in Georgia and beyond. The Pediatric Institute combines the unique strengths and resources of each institution in support of our three-part academic missions of providing outstanding clinical care, conducting innovative basic science discovery and clinical research, and coordinating exceptional education of the future healthcare workforce. Our physicians, researchers, and educators have created a model where leadership, commitment and quality are fundamental components of success. Together, we are transforming pediatrics by achieving new levels of clinical excellence—driven by research, teaching and wellness. We look forward to our future together.

The Aflac Cancer & Blood Disorders Center of Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and the Emory University Department of Pediatrics are seeking an academic Clinical Pediatric Psychologist to join our established Supportive Care Clinic.   This embedded, interdisciplinary, consultative clinic, in existence since 2017, is currently led by a dual trained oncologist-palliative care physician and an experienced nurse practitioner. Over 60% of visits to Supportive Care involve mental health concerns, predominately around adjusting to a diagnosis of cancer, along with the adverse effects of treatment related side effects and the demands of treatment. Many patients have progressive disease and they and their families require special attention to pain, existential and psychological distress, advance care planning and end-of-life preparations. The clinic aims to provide medical guidance, pharmacotherapy, individual psychotherapy, family psychotherapy, and hospice coordination/ case management for patients who are referred by their oncology teams.   The pediatric psychologist within this clinic will take part in interdisciplinary outpatient visits with medical providers, provide psychological assessments and interventions focused on developing skills and behaviors to help cope with illness, uncertainty, and anticipatory grief. Supportive Care providers work closely with patients and families during their treatment course, following patients until survivorship or end-of-life and into family bereavement. All treatment would focus on continuity of care for a low volume of high-need families.   The psychologist would work closely with palliative care providers, oncology teams, psychiatry, the Supportive Care behavioral and mental health (BMH) therapist (LCSW), and practice operations coordinator to develop and implement a comprehensive treatment plan for each patient.   This academically-appointed psychologist will train and supervise BMH providers. This position will also involve program development with the ability to customize based on patient and family needs and academic interests. Appointments will be in-person and via telehealth, and may occur in clinic or less frequently the inpatient setting.   Specific clinical training & skills related to the assessment and intervention of psychosocial needs associated with medical illness are necessary.   Candidates with a strong background in CBT, Pain Psychology, Dignity Therapy, Grief Counseling, and an interest in working with children with life-limiting cancer preferred.         Additional Information: Employment will be through the Emory + Children's Pediatric Institute.
