This opening is in a federally funded research laboratory in the Department of Surgery, specializing in translational investigations of diseased calf muscle in patients with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD). The project uses high-quality human muscle biopsy specimens to study pathological changes in muscle structure and function, including myofibers, connective tissue, microvessels, intracellular molecular networks, and molecular messengers.

Research methods include quantitative fluorescence microscopy, PCR analysis, gel electrophoresis, Western blot analysis, polarography, enzyme assays, and ELISA. The successful candidate will help implement these analytical methods, develop laboratory skills, manage and analyze clinical and laboratory data, and contribute to manuscripts and grant applications.

Eligibility: candidates must have a PhD, MD, or equivalent, plus excellent basic laboratory skills and the ability to research biomedical literature for PAD-related studies and protocol development. Strong problem-solving, independent work, teamwork, writing, oral communication, and record-keeping skills are required.

Funding: salary and benefits are commensurate with experience; the lab is federally funded.

How to apply: applications are being accepted online through the UNMC PeopleAdmin portal. The post includes an application link and indicates that submissions should be made online.
