About this position
Postdoctoral opportunities are available in the Department of Pediatrics in the School of Medicine at the University of California, Irvine. The postdoctoral scholar will join a broad pediatric research environment where faculty-led projects span many areas of child health and medicine, including allergy/immunology, adolescent medicine, cardiology, child/adolescent psychiatry, developmental and behavioral science, endocrinology, genetics/metabolic disorders, general pediatrics, hematology/oncology, infectious diseases, neonatal/perinatal medicine, nephrology, neurology, pulmonary medicine, surgery, and urology.
The role is described as an ongoing recruitment for positions that become available throughout the year and are supported by individual faculty members in Pediatrics. The scholar will conduct research under the general oversight of a faculty mentor and is expected to contribute to the University’s research and education mission. The advert emphasizes that appointments may be matched to available projects across the department rather than a single fixed topic, making this suitable for researchers with training aligned to pediatric and biomedical disciplines.
The position sits within a large academic medical center and is designed for postdoctoral research development in a collaborative setting. Salary depends on experience and the appointment is tied to external funding, with a minimum one-year term.
