An experienced researcher is sought to join our established lab and help to further our research innovation and productivity. Research in the lab focuses on lung inflammation and fibrosis, and the individual sought will primarily focus on the biology of fibroblasts, though some work on macrophages and epithelial cells is also likely. We are particularly interested in understanding mechanisms that promote lung homeostasis and resolution of fibrosis, and which are amenable to clinical translation.

Multiple Faculty Positions Open in Concussion Research

The University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, one of the highest-ranked public universities in the nation and one of the world’s preeminent research institutions, invites nominations and applications for two tenure track faculty positions:

• 1 faculty member appointed as an associate or full professor
• 1 faculty member appointed as an assistant professor

In 2018 the University of Michigan Concussion Center was awarded foundational support through the $150M Biosciences Initiative to establish itself as a global concussion leader. The Concussion Center integrates our research, clinical, and outreach & engagement cores to create novel solutions that advance concussion knowledge and protocols.

We are seeking passionate concussion researchers to help the center by developing and sharing groundbreaking ideas that translate laboratory, clinic, and community observations into knowledge products that reduce concussion risk and improve outcomes in those affected by the injury.  All research domains related to concussion will be considered, including candidates that focus on social and cultural health disparities in concussion prevention, identification, and management.

The Microscopy Laboratory, as part of the Medical School’s Biomedical Research Core Facilities (BRCF) within the Office of Research, provides centralized access & expertise and major imaging instrumentation to investigators at the University of Michigan. The facility is currently comprised of three locations and houses major light microscopes, SEM, TEM and infrastructure for light and electron microscopy sample preparation. LEARN MORE
