ACKERMAN LAB, WOMEN’S HEALTH
Overview: The Ackerman Lab in conjunction with the UCLA Center for Women’s Pelvic Health in the Departments of Urology and Obstetrics and Gynecology at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA is seeking a postdoctoral fellow to conduct research into the role of the genitourinary microbiome in pelvic health. The research group is looking for a highly motivated candidate, with an interest in learning and applying new techniques, competing for funding, and authoring publications. There is an overabundance of data and opportunities just waiting for the right person to put it all together.
The candidate will be directly supervised by A. Lenore Ackerman, M.D., Ph.D., an Assistant Professor in the Departments of Urology and Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Director of Research in Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery. The main topic of research is the relationship between genitourinary microbial communities and host inflammatory responses and how these influence lower urinary tract physiology and pathology. The laboratory is focused on identifying the associations of particular microbial communities with unique phenotypes of voiding dysfunction and modeling these phenotypes in in-vitro systems and animal models.
There will be opportunities to develop translational and clinical neuroscience research skills (e.g. target discovery, individualized treatment development and biomarker/predictor development), in addition to analysis methods and pipelines to address basic and pathophysiological systems biology questions. There will be many opportunities to lead high impact publications starting on day one. We will be working with existing unique datasets in addition to creating new ones. Extensive mentorship will be provided to facilitate the transition to an independent research career.
