About this position

Washington University in St. Louis is advertising a Postdoctoral Research Associate position in the Kau Lab focused on allergy & immunology, microbiology, biochemistry, and animal models.

The lab studies how the microbial ecology of the gut, airway, urinary tract, and other mucosal surfaces interacts with host factors to influence human health. The work is laboratory-based and includes mouse handling, microbial metagenomic sequencing (including whole-genome and RNA sequencing), basic microbiology, molecular cloning, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence microscopy, and multi-omics data analysis.

Applicants should hold a Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent terminal/doctoral degree. Preferred backgrounds include microbiology, computational biology, or a related discipline involving multi-omics datasets. Prior microbiology experience, familiarity with mouse models and mouse handling, and programming skills in R or Python are strongly preferred, but the post emphasizes that prior experience with any of the listed techniques is helpful rather than mandatory, and applicants with any prior lab experience are encouraged to apply.

This is a full-time, on-campus/onsite postdoctoral appointment at the Washington University Medical Campus in Saint Louis, Missouri, United States. The salary is commensurate with experience; no specific stipend amount is stated. Applications should be submitted through the Workday job posting.

Useful context links are provided for prospective postdocs at WashU and for the lab website, which lists recent publications and further information. If an applicant needs an accommodation to use the online application system, the post provides the contact email [email protected] and a phone number for assistance.

Funding details

Base pay is commensurate with experience. The post is a full-time postdoctoral research associate position; no specific stipend or tuition information is provided.

What's required

Applicants must have a Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent terminal/doctoral degree. Preferred qualifications include a PhD in microbiology, computational biology, or a related discipline involving multi-omics datasets; prior experience with microbiology techniques; familiarity with mouse models and proper mouse handling; and skills in at least one programming language such as R or Python. Experience with mouse handling, metagenomic sequencing, microbiology, molecular cloning, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence microscopy, or multi-omics analysis is appreciated but not required. All applicants with any prior lab experience are encouraged to apply.

How to apply

Apply through the Workday job posting using the application link. Review the postdoc information and lab website for context, then submit your materials via the online application system. If you need an accommodation to apply, contact [email protected] or call 314-935-1149.
