Postdoctoral Research Fellow Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the University of British Columbia. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to contribute to leading-edge research aimed at improving pain management in children.

About the Role

The postdoctoral fellow will work closely with clinicians, scientists, and patients across Canada to advance a pipeline from genetic discoveries to predictive genetic testing. The candidate will lead projects focused on improving pain management through pharmacogenomics, with a focus on uncovering genetic factors that lead to variability in pain perception and response to opioids.

Key Responsibilities
  • Design, conduct, and disseminate findings of genetic association studies aimed at uncovering genetic factors that lead to variability in pain perception and response to opioids
  • Investigate how genetic factors contribute to differences in pain perception and response to opioids using C. elegans as a model
Requirements

The ideal candidate will have a background in pharmacogenetics/pharmacogenomics, C. elegans research, medical genetics, molecular biology, genomics/bioinformatics, data science, clinical pharmacology, or other related fields. The candidate should have a strong research record and excellent communication skills.

What We Offer

The University of British Columbia offers a competitive salary and benefits package, as well as access to state-of-the-art equipment and infrastructure. The successful candidate will also have the opportunity to work with a talented team of researchers and clinicians, and to contribute to a dynamic and collaborative research environment.
