(01) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position
Postdoc summary/title:–Postdoctoral Research Scholar – Kannapolis Research
A postdoctoral research position is being recruited for in the Valacchi’s Lab at Plants for Human Health Institute (NCSU, Research Campus, Kannapolis, NC) for a highly motivated candidate to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis and progression of redox- and inflammatory-related conditions with particular focus on neurodevelopmental disorders such as Rett syndrome and autism. The use of nutritional strategies in animal models of these diseases will be also evaluated for their potential properties in counteracting the previously mentioned altered processes. The Postdoctoral Research Scholar is expected to excel in areas of neurodevelopmental disorders. Excellent skills in the domain of cell culture techniques, molecular biology, fibroblast isolation from human and mouse tissues are requested. Your tasks include, but are not limited, to design and execute experiments, analyze and interpret data on research projects, presenting data to seminar and conferences. The Postdoc is also expected to monitor student interns and lab personnel.
Postdoc summary/title:–Postdoctoral Research Scholar – Animal Science
The mission of the Department of Animal Science is to provide high-quality, relevant education and training for about 750 undergraduate and 120 graduate students to develop new knowledge through research in selected areas to improve the efficiency and sustainability of animal agriculture, biomedical science, and nonagricultural animal management to disseminate relevant research-based knowledge to a varied clientele for problem-solving, enhancing food system.
The Department of Animal Science at NC State University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Scholar position. Under Dr. Christian Maltecca’s guidance, this position will investigate the biological mechanisms of heat stress in pigs through multi-omics data integration.
Postdoc summary/title:–Postdoctoral Research Scholar – Weed Genomics
The VanWallendael Lab at North Carolina State University seeks a postdoctoral researcher to study the genomic changes underlying rapid evolution in agricultural weeds. Our new lab has the twin goals of better understanding evolution by studying weeds and improving weed control using evolutionary knowledge. The postdoc will have the opportunity to focus on the evolution of weedy traits in crop-related weeds, as well as monitoring genomic changes in wild weed and invasive species populations. Candidates should have interests related to these topics, but will have flexibility to investigate lines of inquiry specific to their research goals.
The VanWallendael Lab is newly formed, so this postdoc will have the opportunity to work closely with the PI on projects and receive tailored mentoring. Though the lab is small, we are part of a large community of researchers in an excellent location for plant genetics, the Research Triangle. Our lab is affiliated with the Weed Science Program, the Plant Breeding Consortium, the Genetics Program, and is split between two departments: Horticulture and Crop and Soil Sciences.
Postdoc summary/title:–Postdoctoral Research Scholar
The primary purpose of this Postdoctoral Research Scholar position will be to develop ocean modeling tools and analysis, including ocean data assimilation, to study coastal circulation dynamics, biophysical interactions, and air-sea interactions in the northwestern Atlantic ocean.
The Postdoctoral Research Scholar will be mentored by Dr. Ruoying He and will contribute towards several recently awarded projects in the field of coastal ocean observations and prediction, marine ecosystem variability, and ecological forecasting.
Dr. He and the Postdoctoral Research Scholar will meet regularly to discuss research as well as other aspects of professional development including but not limited to teaching, mentorship, outreach, service, and career plans.
Under the guidance of Dr. He, the Postdoctoral Research Scholar will be expected to disseminate research results through presentations at meetings, prepare manuscripts for peer-reviewed journal publication, and interact with other researchers and graduate students.
The Postdoctoral Research Scholar will work in a multidisciplinary team consisting of researchers in academia, industry, and government agencies.

Postdoc summary/title:–Postdoctoral Research Scholar
The purpose of this postdoc is to develop bacterial strains that can express milligram quantities of formate dehydrogenase and carbonic anhydrase for a collaborative project focusing on the immobilization of these gas-converting enzymes on surfaces for carbon dioxide remediation purposes. Additionally, the competitive candidate will be involved in work to metabolically engineer E. coli to convert the produced formate into value-added products.
Postdoc summary/title:–Post Doctoral Research Scholar – Cancer Biology and Neurobiology
The selected candidate will work under the direct guidance of Dr. Michael Nolan (radiation/cancer biologist and veterinary radiation oncologist). Significant mentorship will also be provided by key collaborators: Drs. Santosh Mishra (neurobiologist), and Duncan Lascelles (translational pain researcher and oncologic surgeon).
The scholar will work with other lab members to lead NIH-funded research projects, studying mechanisms of pain, and impacts of pain signaling on tumor progression. The projects involve benchtop cell culture experiments, studies using genetically engineered mouse models, behavioral testing, and potential involvement in co- clinical trials in both humans and animal (pet dogs/cats) with naturally occurring cancer.
North Carolina State University is a public land-grant research university in Raleigh, North Carolina. Founded in 1887 and part of the University of North Carolina system, it is the largest university in the Carolinas. The university forms one of the corners of the Research Triangle together with Duke University in Durham and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It is classified among “R1: Doctoral Universities – Very high research activity”.
The North Carolina General Assembly established the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, now NC State, on March 7, 1887, originally as a land-grant college. Today, NC State has an enrollment of more than 35,000 students, making it among the largest in the country. NC State has historical strengths in engineering, statistics, agriculture, life sciences, textiles and design and offers bachelor’s degrees in 106 fields of study. The graduate school offers master’s degrees in 104 fields, doctoral degrees in 61 fields, and a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine.
