Open Postdoctoral position, faculty mentor Bereketeab Haileselassie
A postdoctoral fellow position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Bereketeab Haileselassie in the Department of Pediatrics Division of Critical Care Medicine at Stanford University. Our research focuses on understanding how alterations in mitochondrial dynamics impact cellular metabolism and function during various inflammatory disorders. Our resent work has demonstrated that impairments in mitochondrial dynamics including excessive fission and stalled mitophagy mediate the accumulation and extracellular release of mitochondrial byproducts which promote a pro-inflammatory response. This molecular process plays a significant role in various acute and chronic inflammatory disorders including acute Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD), a common and severe complication following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Our group works on developing targeted tools which abrogate impairments in mitochondrial dynamics as therapeutic candidates for the treatment of this devastating complication of HSCT.
This position will provide the candidate with an opportunity to lead interdisciplinary research projects with a strong focus on understanding how pre-transplant conditioning regiments impact mitochondrial dynamics and function. Furthermore, this position will provide an opportunity to characterize the impact of cell free mitochondrial byproducts on immune phenotypes as it relates to GVHD.
We are looking for a highly motivated individual who has a strong background in stem cell transplantation and immunology. Candidates who are interested in broadening their knowledge and skillset in mitochondrial biology would best fit this position.
Required Qualifications:
- PhD in cell biology, molecular biology, stem cell biology, developmental biology, immunology, or cancer biology.
- The candidate should have expertise in cell and molecular biology, and animal handling in addition to some of the following preferred laboratory techniques: cell culture, gene editing/transcription and virus transfection, flow cytometry.
- The candidate is expected to have the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
- Self-initiative and motivation, excellent communication, teamwork, data processing, written and oral presentation and problem-solving skills are desired.
- English proficiency is required.
Required Application Materials:
- CV with references

Open Postdoctoral position, faculty mentor Daniel Tawfik
An opportunity for a postdoctoral fellow is available in the lab of Dr. Daniel Tawfik in the Department of Pediatrics, Division of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine at Stanford University. The Tawfik lab studies the use of electronic health record metadata in identifying structures and processes that promote high quality healthcare. Our projects apply advanced analytical methods to large databases of primarily structured electronic health record data and EHR usage metadata.
The position will have the opportunity to lead projects and contribute to ongoing work with other faculty, fellows, and PIs at Stanford and other collaborating institutions. These projects will explore the use of EHR metadata in creating measures that quantify several aspects of team dynamics within health care settings, relate those measures to traditional knowledge sources about teams, and use them to develop prediction models for patient safety events.
In addition to priority projects, the Postdoc will have the opportunity to work with other researchers both at Stanford and within our larger national network of collaborators with similar research programs.
Required Qualifications:
o Highly motivated postdoctoral researcher with:
• Experience in relational databases, big data curation and analysis
• Expertise in machine learning, including building and deploying prediction models
• Strong data science coding skills in programs and languages such as Python, R, Stata, and SQL
• Experience with research in healthcare domains preferred
• Experience with mixed methods research approaches preferred
Required Application Materials:
o Curriculum Vitae
o Cover letter including statement of interest, research experience, and career goals
o Contact information for 3 references
o Up to 2 key papers or other scientific writing samples that demonstrate your research
