Post-doctoral Research

A post-doc is typically a 1-3 year opportunity to delve into a cutting edge research theme following the completion of a doctoral degree. It is also something of a purgatory experience, acting as a bit of a holding pattern until a permanent position in academia, research, an agency, or some other field is secured. As a result, a post-doc position is potentially shortened by high productivity! Nonetheless, I am always open to working with post-docs, who I see as a exciting collaborators. Ideally the post-doc would be interested in the sort of work I do, but would also bring with him or her some novel insights and approaches to expanding our mutual fields of interest.

If you are interested in joining the lab as a post-doc, please don't hesitate to drop me a line. Typically there are 1-2 post-docs working directly or indirectly with the lab. Like with student opportunities, post-doctoral opportunities are limited by funding (for the salary and for the projects). Sometimes a grant covers the post-doc. Other times the post-doc has independently secured the funding. But if we share research interests and think we can leap the funding hurdle, I'd be happy to discuss.
