About this position

Texas A&M AgriLife Research is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate to join the Institute for Advancing Health Through Agriculture (IHA) in College Station, Texas. The role sits within a collaborative research environment that brings together precision nutrition, responsive agriculture, and social and behavioral research, with the goal of reducing diet-related chronic disease and improving health while supporting producers and the environment.

The successful postdoctoral researcher will work with the Responsive Agricultural Food Systems Research Unit (RAFSRU), co-housed at Texas A&M AgriLife IHA and operating under the USDA-ARS Human Nutrition National Program. The group’s work examines how agriculture, food systems, the environment, and human health intersect across the life course, with current studies spanning maternal obesity, malnutrition, and nutrition-associated chronic disease prevention.

This opening is focused on the health impacts of novel biofortified foods, including anthocyanin-enriched staples and vegetables, with an emphasis on metabolic dysfunction and inflammation. The postdoctoral fellow will design and execute hypothesis-driven studies, conduct mechanistic research, develop approaches that connect the food and nutrition environment to health outcomes, and contribute advanced statistical analysis and publication of research findings.

The position also involves collaboration with USDA-ARS scientists, consultation with the PI on experimental design, and mentoring or training of junior staff and students. Texas A&M AgriLife describes the environment as one of collaboration, mentorship, and professional growth within a large agriculture and life-sciences research system.

Funding details

Funded by a grant and/or contract; initial appointment limited to 2 years and contingent on continuation of funding.

What's required

A PhD in preclinical or clinical nutrition, physiology, biochemistry, cell and molecular biology, endocrinology, reproduction, or epidemiology obtained within the last 5 years is required. Applicants must be able to work independently, have excellent oral and written communication skills, be collaborative and supportive team members, be highly organized and detail oriented, and be able to multitask and build effective working relationships. Preferred experience includes animal models of diet-induced obesity, metabolic syndrome, or cardiovascular disease and nutritional interventions, human nutrition studies such as cohort analyses, feeding trials, diet intake assessment, or food systems analysis, and precision nutrition studies including omic biomarker analysis. Ability to lift or move objects, exert light force, and work beyond normal office hours or weekends as needed is also required.

How to apply

Submit an online application through the Texas A&M AgriLife Workday portal. Include all required job application data or upload a complete resume, along with a CV/resume, cover letter, list of references, and any certifications or additional documentation.
