2023-07133 Assistant Professor - Pharmacology and Physiology 

Position Summary

The laboratory of Dr. Salvemini in the Department of Pharmacology and Physiology at 性奴调教, School of. Medicine is looking for a highly motivated Assistant Research Professor in a vibrant NIH-funded laboratory that performs cutting-edge pain research.

The laboratory integrates behavioral pharmacology, molecular genetics, biochemistry and drug discovery measures to understand pathways involved in the development of neuropathic pain. We are also interested in investigating the interactions between chronic neuropathic pain states and comorbidities, such as cognitive dysfunction, depression and anxiety. Our basic science-driven approach has led to the identification of several pathways and novel targets that are enabling the development of new pharmacological strategies for therapeutic intervention. Translating our discoveries to the clinic is a key mission of our work.

The Department of Pharmacology and Physiology, a multidisciplinary, highly collaborative and dynamic department, is also the home base of the Institute for Translational Neuroscience. Faculty members within the department have expertise in several areas of pharmacology and physiology, with a particular emphasis in neuroscience and metabolism. The department offers access to excellent core facilities and opportunities to join collaborative centers including the Liver Center, the Institute for Drug and Biotherapeutic Innovation, and the Institute of Clinical and Translational Sciences, and internal funding mechanisms for project support.

Members of our community have access to the nationally-acclaimed Cortex Innovation Community, to multiple local startup-supporting institutions and to the fast-growing, cutting-edge medical and biotechnology community which operates actively throughout the St. Louis region.

Responsibilities

Work with the PI and assist in the development and implementation of research programs, provide data in support of grants and papers, write and submit papers, train students and supervise technical staff.

Qualifications

The ideal candidate will have a Ph.D. in neuroscience, biology or a related biomedical science field with at least two years post-doctoral training or equivalent experience directly involved in in vivo studies in rodent pain models and models of cognitive behavior. The candidate should have excellent communication skills and possess the ability to work both independently and in a team. Extensive knowledge in neuroscience and animal behavior and experience with rodent models are required along with knowledge in biochemistry. Background in neuroimmune signaling is a plus. Demonstrated mentoring skills and supervisory skills are essential. Surgical experience in small animals and additional experience in manuscript and grant writing are strongly preferred. 性奴调教 School of Medicine is a Catholic Jesuit Institution with a long tradition of excellence in teaching, research and patient care.
