About this position
The National Institute on Aging (NIA), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow to join the Immunoepidemiology Unit led by Dr. Minkyo Song in Baltimore, MD. This research group focuses on the intersection of autoimmunity, aging, and epidemiology, investigating the etiologic role of autoimmune diseases in aging and age-related conditions. The position offers opportunities to explore multiple approaches to defining autoimmunity, including the use of ICD codes, claims data, and biomarkers such as autoantibodies, and to study their associations with aging-related phenotypes and diseases.
The research environment is highly interdisciplinary, involving collaborations with biologists, clinicians, and statisticians. The group employs a variety of study designs and analytic methods, including longitudinal cohort studies, pharmacoepidemiologic approaches, and immunoproteomics analyses. The successful candidate will have the chance to lead or co-lead national and international collaborative projects, design and implement analytical strategies for longitudinal and high-dimensional data, and mentor postbaccalaureate and summer students.
Applicants should have completed, or be close to completing, a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in Epidemiology, Biostatistics, Medicine, Public Health, or a related field within the past five years. Experience working in multidisciplinary teams, analyzing epidemiologic and/or omics data, and strong communication skills are preferred. U.S. citizens, permanent residents, and eligible foreign nationals (except from restricted countries) are welcome to apply. All candidates are subject to a background investigation.
The position is fully funded, with salary and benefits provided according to the NIH stipend schedule for postdoctoral fellows. For more information about the NIA IRP and the advantages of being a fellow, visit the NIA website. The application deadline is July 31, 2026, and review of applications will continue until the position is filled.
To apply, submit a cover letter outlining research interests and experience, a CV with bibliography, three representative publications, and three letters of recommendation to Dr. Minkyo Song at the provided email address. Please use the subject line: Immunoepidemiology Unit Postdoctoral Fellow Application – [Applicant Last Name].
