Open Postdoctoral Positions

The Lay Teng Ang Lab at Stanford University invites motivated and ambitious postdoctoral fellows to join our team. Our research focuses on converting human pluripotent stem cells into liver, blood vessels, bladder, and other cell types to use them in regenerative medicine. We are excited to learn about your research interests and how they might complement our ongoing efforts.

The Beinat Laboratory has an opening for a highly motivated and collaborative postdoctoral fellow with interest in organic chemistry and radiopharmaceutical development. Successful candidates will join the Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford within the Department of Radiology, Stanford School of Medicine. 

The Bertaccini Lab within the Stanford Department of Anesthesiology seeks an individual at the postdoctoral level with interest and expertise in molecular modeling related to protein homology modeling, ligand docking and drug design to develop the next generation of safer anesthetics.

Alexandria Boehm at Stanford University is searching for a post doctoral researcher to carry out research related to understanding the sources, presence, persistence, and transport of pathogens in the environment. The post doc will be stationed at Stanford University in the department of civil and environmental engineering or the department of oceans and carry out laboratory and field measurements to better understand the distribution, persistence, and sources of pathogens in the environment. This could include, but is not limited to, work on pathogens on fomites, in water and wastewater, and in air. Research on control measures to reduce concentrations of pathogens in the environment is also within scope. The Boehm lab works with pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and eukaryotic organisms. An ideal candidate will be skilled in QPCR and / or droplet digital PCR, as well as traditional microbial cultivation, and / or viral infectivity assays. 

Robot Learning for Manipulation

Mineral-X is offering a postdoctoral fellow position in computational geoscience within the Department of Earth & Planetary Sciences at Stanford University. The project will develop data-driven approaches for 3D geological structure modeling using comprehensive geological, geophysical, and geochemical data for country-scale smart mapping.

The Stanford Urologic Cancer Epidemiology Lab, led by Associate Professor of Urology Dr. Benjamin I. Chung at Stanford University with Assistant Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health Dr. Marvin Langston serving as Postdoctoral Training Director, is seeking multiple talented scientists to join the research team. We conduct research projects on the epidemiology of all urologic cancers with a particular focus on Kidney cancer. Kidney cancer incidence rates have steadily grown since the 1990s, with kidney cancer becoming the sixth and ninth most diagnosed cancer for men and women respectively in the US.  Kidney cancer, often detected incidentally by imaging, is an often-understudied neoplasm in cancer epidemiology research. Kidney cancer represents the deadliest urological neoplasm and has a dismal late-stage 5-year survival rate.  The goal of this postdoctoral program is to conduct high-quality epidemiological research in the field of urological cancers with a special emphasis on kidney cancer epidemiology (including prevention and screening, control, etiology, health disparities, treatment, and survivorship).  Research will be accomplished through an immersive program designed to provide fellows with the methodology, clinical exposure, and track record of productivity to succeed.

Tackling climate change is a defining challenge of the 21st century. The transition to a low-carbon energy system will solve about three-fourths of the climate problem. At the same time, the new energy system needs to be affordable, reliable, and available to all people.

Mark Davis's lab at Stanford is looking for ambitious postdoctoral fellows to carry out cutting edge projects in the immunology of infectious diseases and cancer.  There are several funded positions that can start early 2025. Requirements are a Ph.D. in Immunology, publications and a willingness to learn and make sue of some of the new methods we have developed, with a particular focus on human immunology and diseases.

A fully funded postdoctoral fellowship is available in the Ophthalmic Microsystems Laboratory at Stanford, which is led by Charles DeBoer, MD, PhD in the Department of Ophthalmology, Stanford University School of Medicine. The Ophthalmic Microsystems Laboratory at Stanford is interested in developing new ocular therapeutics using novel micro and nanotechnologies. We integrate multiple modalities (e.g.

We are seeking a motivated and highly qualified Postdoctoral Fellow to join our team in advancing preclinical research in ultra-high dose rate radiotherapy (FLASH RT). This position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research using electron beam FLASH RT in small animal models, with a strategic trajectory toward integrating proton-based FLASH capabilities.

Postdoctoral position in developmental and stem cell neuroscience

One Postdoctoral Fellow position in the area of peptide chemistry or radiochemistry is available immediately in the Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford (MIPS), Stanford University School of Medicine.

The Stanford Center on Early Childhood within the Graduate School of Education is seeking a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral scholar to join our research team and support a project funded by Administration for Children and Families (ACF). The primary research focus of this position is on understanding how families’ and educators’ experiences related to early care and education (ECE) access have been shifting since 2020, and how state-level child care assistance policies affected ECE access. Research activities of this project include secondary data analyses and manuscript development using existing national datasets from the RAPID Survey Project and the Childcare Development Fund (CCDF) Policies Database.

The Frock laboratory at Stanford University is looking for a talented individual to study mechanisms of DNA double-stranded break (DSB) repair, recombination, and chromosomal translocations.  We employ cutting edge functional (epi)genomics and molecular biology approaches, leveraging a variety of designer (e.g. SpCas9, SaCas9, Cas12, etc.) and physiological (e.g.

We are looking for a talented researcher with experience in econometric/quasi-experimental approaches for causal effect estimation (e.g., regression discontinuity and difference-in-differences) to help the Geldsetzer lab expand its work on the link between shingles vaccination and dementia (see: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101
