Postdoctoral Training

Specific job opportunities for postdoctoral trainees will be posted to this web site. However, highly qualified and motivated candidates who are particularly interested in research in the Center for Lung Biology should contact the Director of Training Programs regarding availability of training positions. Inclusion of a current Curriculum Vitae and a cover letter stating research background and interest in the Center for Lung Biology will facilitate discussions. Inquiries may be submitted by mail or by email.

A post-doctoral position is available in the Center for Lung Biology at the University of South Alabama in Mobile. The successful candidate will work in a very enthusiastic atmosphere evaluating the role of pulmonary endothelial cells in barrier repair after Pseudomonas aeruginosa-induced lung injury. Applicants are expected to have a PhD in Biological Sciences and/or MD degree and experience working with in vivo lung injury models. Interested applicants should send a letter of interest, curriculum vitae, and the names and addresses of three references to: Charlene Jordan, Center for Lung Biology, University of South Alabama, 3340 MSB, Mobile, AL. 36688-0002; telephone: (251) 460-7086; Fax: (251) 460-7452; Email: cjordan@jaguar1.usouthal.edu.
