Open Postdoctoral Positions

The Stanford Archaeology Center announces a postdoctoral position for an archaeobotanist with experience in analyses of micro- and/or macro-remains (phytolith, starch granules, and seeds) and lab management. The research area is open, but priority will be given to someone working on East Asian materials.

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Scholar to lead a multifaceted project focusing on investigating fundamental mechanisms of human embryo implantation. This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of developmental biology and tissue engineering, utilizing innovative technologies. Our research objectives are to elucidate the cellular behavior, invasion, and interactions between the embryo and maternal tissue, to employ single-cell technologies to profile the molecular crosstalk of the implantation niche and to employ gene editing to determine the genetic factors underlying successful implantation. By studying what goes wrong at the embryo-maternal interface, we aim to gain critical insights into the molecular causes underlying implantation failure and early pre-clinical miscarriages.

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.

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. 

We are inviting applications for a full-time postdoctoral scholar candidate to join the Knowlton Lab in the Department of Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.
