The Zhao Lab (zhaolab.ua.edu) of the Department of Chemical and Biological
Engineering at the University of Alabama is seeking two highly motivated and
skilled post-doctoral candidates who have a solid background either in
polymer, drug delivery, nanomedicine, organic chemistry, pain treatment, and
/or tissue engineering. The successful applicants will be responsible for
the study of alternative strategies and therapies for pain management. This
is a highly collaborative project involving three labs at the University of
Alabama, University of California San Diego, and the University of Alabama
at Birmingham. The Zhao Lab is dedicated to polymeric biomaterials for drug
delivery and tissue engineering, with a particular focus on the application
of tetrodotoxin in pain treatment.
Qualifications
• Ph.D./MD with a background in polymer, drug delivery, nanomedicine,
organic chemistry, and/or tissue engineering.
• Individuals with experience in pain treatment will be given
preference.
• Experience in animal models is preferred, but not necessary.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English with
good organizational and analytical abilities.
• Motivated to pursue postdoctoral training required for a future
independent academic career.
Interested applicants should apply directly to Dr. Chao Zhao by sending a
cover letter, C.V., and contact information for three references to [email protected]
