Opportunities

Postdoctoral Fellow

The An Lab is seeking candidates to join our vibrant team in a full-time position as a Postdoctoral Fellow. Research in the An Lab focuses on the genetic and molecular mechanisms understanding aging biology that impacts oral health and disease. Our research employs multiple in vivo and in vitro models to investigate the basic biology of aging that drives oral disease and decline. In addition to targeting the various hallmarks of aging to improve oral health, our group focuses on the translation of our results into the dental clinic. The postdoctoral scientist will perform laboratory experiments on an independent project under the supervision of Dr. An while assisting other laboratory personnel. Please contact Dr. An (joyan@uw.edu) if you are interested in applying for this position.
