Post Doctoral Fellowship

This individual will work in the Reproductive Endocrinology and Women's Health Laboratory and will have responsibilities in several ongoing NIH-funded trials. This postdoctoral fellowship will provide training in clinical and translational research, clinical trial management, critical thinking, manuscript writing and grant writing skills necessary for establishing an independent research career. Specific clinical expertise will be developed in measurements of energy expenditure, energy intake, physical activity, insulin sensitivity and body composition in adult and pediatric populations including small children and infants. As a member of a multidisciplinary team, the fellow will also work on existing datasets from studies that imposed lifestyle, dietary and/or pharmacological interventions to understand how body weight, adiposity and insulin resistance impact physiological function across the lifespan.

Responsibilities include study and personnel and project management; data collection, data analysis, and preparation of data for publication in peer-reviewed journals; idea development and grant writing.
