Opportunities
Postdoctoral Researcher
The Laboratory of Ronald Chandler, Ph.D.is always looking for qualified Postdoctoral Researcher candidates in the areas of Epigenetics, Chromatin Biology and Women’s Health and Gynecologic Cancer.
The Chandler Laboratory is part of the Michigan State University’s College of Human Medicine in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Biology and the Van Andel Institute Center for Epigenetics. Dr. Chandler’s lab is located in the Grand Rapids Research Center and will collaborate with Dr. Peter Jones and members of the Van Andel Research Institute Cancer Epigenetics Program and the Michigan Ovarian Cancer Science and Innovation Consortium (MOSAIC). We are also members of the MSU Reproductive and Developmental Sciences Training Program (RDSP).
Postdoctoral positions are available for enthusiastic and highly motivated individuals who will be expected to use genetically engineered mouse models to investigate the role epigenetic processes and chromatin remodeling enzymes in the female reproductive tract with the intent of translating the findings into potential drug discoveries.
Candidates will work with Dr. Chandler and his research team to identify areas of interest and expertise that will facilitate the use
of gynecologic disease models to reach an overall project objective of improving women’s health.
Qualifications:
Located on the Grand River, Grand Rapids offers big-city excitement, featuring restaurants and nightspots, theaters, museums, sports and concerts, as well as an eclectic mix of walk-able neighborhoods, including Alger Heights, Fulton Heights, Ottawa Hills, Heritage Hill, and Easton.
With a medical and life sciences industry boom, strong entrepreneurial activity, dedication to green building and living, and innovative employers, Grand Rapids' diverse economy continues to grow, offering endless career opportunities.
