Overview: The Neonatal Diseases Research Program (Director: Dr. Venkatesh Sampath) and the Division of Neonatology (Director: Dr. Steve Olsen) are looking to hire a PhD scientist to conduct translational/ basic science research in the areas of neonatal lung injury and lung developmental biology. The NDRP, which focuses broadly on the molecular mechanisms regulating endothelial and epithelial injury in the context of the developing lung and intestine, is funded by the NHLBI, NICHD, NIDDK, research foundations, and institutional funds. The laboratory uses transgenic mouse models, human genetics, cell-culture models, microbiome analyses, and novel therapeutics to study the inflammatory/ developmental basis of diseases such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia, necrotizing enterocolitis, and infectious diseases. The laboratory currently employs 5 full time PhD and masters level scientists. Translational research endeavors are supported by neonatal research coordinators. Faculty and clinical fellows from Neonatology as well as faculty from infectious disease and immunology participate in the NDRP. We advocate a culture of discovery, innovation, team science and excellence. Access to an active neonatal genomic biorepository established by Dr. Sampath, that houses de-identified DNA samples from phenotypically well-characterized preterm cohorts, is available. The Neonatal Diseases Research Program (NDRP) laboratories has >1000 sq. feet of wet lab space located on the west side of 7th floor of Childrens Mercy Research Institute, a modern state-of-art research tower that houses 375,000 total sq. ft of research space. Apart from individual labs, the CMRI houses research cores that support genomics, flow cytometry, imaging, GMP biologics, and is developing a rodent vivarium. We are looking for a highly motivated individual with advanced molecular and cell biology techniques to study endothelial/epithelial injury in the context of the developing lung. Specific expertise in endothelial/vascular biology, Crispr/Cas9 gene targeting, use of single cell RNA-sequencing and bioinformatics and rodent work in the lung is preferred.
