The Biomaterials and Biomechanics Department is seeking a Post-doctoral researcher/fellow to begin immediately. The successful candidate will be joining an enthusiastic and dynamic group. The lab is very active, with the opportunities to publish papers, submit grant proposals, present at technical meetings, and work with partners in industry and university / government.   There are currently several areas of work within my lab which span within the broad field of biomaterials and include the following specific topic areas: 1. Design and synthesis of novel polymeric materials for dental and biomedical applications: the major project funded in the lab aims at...

The successful candidate will work independently to investigate the molecular mechanisms that support health associated polymicrobial communities. He/she will be responsible for most of the planning, implementation, and data interpretation associated with his/her research. Thus, the candidate will be expected to work independently with attention to detail and strong record-keeping. The goal is to understand how the oral flora interacts and lead to early childhood caries disease development. This includes intra, inter microbial and potentially host interactions. Typical laboratory techniques often require expertise with gene expression analysis, targeted mutagenesis, microscopy, bacterial community analysis, and multiple `omics analysis.

The lab of Stephen Back, M.D., Ph.D. at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) in Portland, Oregon, in close collaboration with the laboratories of Jacob Raber, Ph.D.at OHSU and of Cecily Bishop, Ph.D.  at Oregon State University (OSU) in Corvallis, Oregon, is seeking a candidate for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position to study the effects of fetal and neonatal intermittent cerebral hypoxemia on brain development.  The lab currently has NIH funding for studies to explore the sequelae of maternal sleep apnea on fetal and postnatal brain development.  Despite the fact that maternal sleep apnea commonly occurs in roughly 20-40% of human pregnancies, the long-term impact on brain...
