About this position

Harvard Medical School is advertising a Postdoctoral Fellow in Cell Biology in the laboratory of Dr. Marcia Haigis in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.

The Haigis lab studies the molecular basis of metabolic regulation in health, aging, and disease. Research themes include discovering new metabolic pathways using metabolomic, biochemical, and genetic approaches, with applications to normal physiology and diseases of aging such as cancer and immune dysfunction. Projects are described as highly collaborative.

The position is intended for a candidate with a Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. in Cell or Molecular Biology, Chemistry, or a related field. Helpful experience includes mass spectrometry, metabolite profiling, protein purification, biochemistry, genetic screening, mouse physiology, cancer biology, and structural biology.

This is a salaried, benefits-eligible postdoctoral appointment. The successful candidate will work with Dr. Haigis to develop a project aligned with the lab’s focus, contribute to grants and manuscripts, teach and mentor lab members, and help with lab operations. The appointment is for one year from hire, with possible extension depending on performance, business need, and continued funding. The post also expects the fellow to apply for fellowship funding.

Applicants should submit a CV, cover letter describing interest in the lab and initial research ideas, a statement of research for PhD work, and contact information for three references through the ARIeS portal. The application deadline is 2026-11-05.
