Postdoc Opportunities in Nutrition in New Zealand

This post-doctoral position is part of the LESS malnutrition GHIGS project at the Université de Bordeaux and focuses on the scientific and operational coordination of a clinical trial in northern Nigeria (Yobe State) within the ALIMA humanitarian mission. The post-doctoral researcher will contribute to the preparation and implementation of a randomized three-arm clinical trial involving 1,008 children aged 6 to 59 months. The project includes protocol development in line with SPIRIT guidelines a...

This post-doctoral project at INRAE Centre Clermont - Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes focuses on nutrition-based strategies to restore the anabolic response of muscle to a meal. The work is centered on whether fermented foods developed in the DOMINO project can improve muscle recovery after immobilization in an aged rodent model. The successful candidate will coordinate and monitor an animal experiment using aged rats immobilized with casts, then assess whole-body and tissue-level metabolic responses. Thes...

The Beckman Research Institute of City of Hope is seeking a postdoctoral fellow to join Dr. Jen Jen Yeh’s laboratory in Duarte, California. The laboratory investigates the pathogenesis and pharmacogenomics of pancreatic cancer to accelerate the development of effective treatments. The research uses molecular and genomic data together with human-in-mouse models. Previous work in the laboratory has identified four core pancreatic cancer subtypes with important biological and clinical implications....

This postdoctoral position combines laboratory management with research in aquatic comparative physiology, biochemistry and molecular biology . The successful candidate will join the WELL4CATCH project, which develops practical indicators and strategies to improve fish welfare in fisheries . The project is building new data and tools for assessing the welfare of wild-caught fish and is working toward a fish welfare classification framework that can support more consistent assessment and evidence...

The Quadram Institute is recruiting a postdoctoral research scientist in data science to work across the Hildebrand and Traka groups in Norwich, United Kingdom. The project examines how diet, lifestyle, the gut microbiome and mental wellbeing interact, using standardised large-scale cohort data from more than 20 European cohorts. The researcher will integrate dietary intake, metagenomic, metabolomic and mental-health datasets to identify reproducible relationships across data layers. The work wi...

Linköping University is recruiting a full-time postdoctoral researcher to join a research programme on the prevention of cardiovascular disease, with particular emphasis on the causes and consequences of atherosclerosis. The project is primarily based on data from the national, population-based SCAPIS study, which combines advanced imaging of atherosclerosis with detailed information on health behaviours, risk factors, and cardiovascular health in approximately 30,000 middle-aged individuals. Th...

The University of Salzburg is seeking a postdoctoral University Assistant with PhD for the Division Food–Movement–Health in its Department of Sports and Exercise Science. The role combines independent scientific research with contributions to university teaching and the broader research and teaching activities of the department. The division works at the intersection of food, movement and health, within a department dedicated to the importance of physical activity and sport across the lifespan, ...

The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher for a 36-month project in the Department of Forest Ecology and Management in Umeå, Sweden. The research examines how organic nitrogen metabolism is redirected into signalling pathways that regulate plant development and responses to abiotic and biotic stress, including pathogen attack. The project sits at the interface of plant nutrition, metabolic signalling, plant physiology and stress biology . The researcher...

This postdoctoral project at the Department of Forest Ecology and Management, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), focuses on how organic nitrogen metabolism is redirected into signalling pathways that influence plant development and stress tolerance. The successful candidate will investigate links between organic nitrogen metabolism, metabolic regulation and downstream signalling cascades in plants facing abiotic and biotic challenges, including pathogen attack. The project combin...
