Postdoctoral position in pharmacokinetics at LLNL

Dr. Ken Turteltaub recently contacted me to let me know about the postdoctoral position summarized below.

The Postdoctoral Pharmacology Researcher will study how pharmacokinetics and ADME properties are affected by the physicochemical properties of nanoparticles using techniques including accelerator mass spectrometry. As a Postdoc under the Battelle Center for Fundamental and Applied Systems Toxicology (B-FAST) you will be involved in collaborative research with scientists from Battelle and several of the National Laboratories we manage/co-manage, and potentially with other members of the public and private sectors. We envision our collaboration to result in the development of the science and tools that will transform the way safety science and toxicology testing are practiced today.

THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MET TO BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS POSITION:
• Recent PhD in a relevant scientific field i.e., pharmacology, toxicology, biochemistry, chemistry • Demonstrated hands-on experience with various animal models with demonstrated ability to innovate research models
• Prior experience conducting protocol driven research in biologic matrices • Experience working effectively in an interactive, matrixed environment, working with toxicologists, physiologists and chemists toward a common endpoint
• Proven ability to assimilate information quickly and apply knowledge to a broad array of novel situations

To apply for this position, please visit our corporate website www.battelle.org/careers, create a personal profile, upload a CV and apply to requisition number 18273.
