Postdoctoral positions in metabolomics or lipidomics are immediately available in the laboratory of Dr. Mark Leggas in the Department of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences to study the pharmacology and effects of drug treatment in infants with neonatal abstinence syndrome or neonatal opioid-withdrawal syndrome. We seek highly motivated candidates with bioanalytical metabolomics and/or lipidomics experience. Bioinformatic workflow experience is also highly desirable. Although projects are loosely defined within the scope of the NIH R01 award, there are opportunities for new mutually agreed upon directions.

Trainees will interact with a multidisciplinary team of translational and clinical scientists with multiple opportunities to present their work and develop their scientific and soft skills. The lab includes Ph.D.-level staff, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students. Trainees from the Leggas lab have transitioned to academic, industry, or government positions.
