Shedd Aquarium seeks a Postdoctoral Analyst to join a multi-disciplinary research group examining the role of the environmental microbiome in disease prevention for aquarium animals. The individual will use their understanding of principles governing microbial community assembly and function to provide analysis and interpretation of amplicon sequence data and metagenomic data sets. In addition, the individual will be responsible for developing, refining and implementing bioinformatics pipelines and preparing results for dissemination.
Position Summary
The Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics seeks a Research Associate to work in the Dr. Richard Schwartz. We are investigating the promotional effects of a high fat diet and its interaction with the endocrine disruptor benzophenone-3/ BP-3/oxybenzone, the active ingredient in most sunscreens and many personal care products. These studies utilize various genetic mammary cancer mouse models. Our MSU research project is one of six national programs currently funded by the NIEHS/NCI Breast Cancer and the Environment Research Program.
