We are looking for a self-motivated individual who can work independently in a team environment towards multi-parametric analysis of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. This is a joint position at the Memory and Aging Center, University of New Mexico (UNM) and The Minds Research Network in Albuquerque. The present position is funded by a five-year grant recently awarded to Dr. Rosenberg to start an Alzheimer’s disease research center in New Mexico. The individual will have an opportunity to apply for NIH research grants and if successful can lead to a permanent position. The advertised post-doctoral position is for two-years and can be extended for another year if mutually desirable.
Requires a Ph.D. or M.D. in a directly related field, and a proven record of peer-reviewed publications including demonstrated first-authorship success in applicable research areas.
The successful candidate will have demonstrated effectiveness and experience working as part of a large research team, as well as success performing independent research projects of varying scope. This position requires superior professional-level verbal and written communication skills which are required to effectively perform in the role, as well as excellent judgment, and problem-solving and decision-making skills.
Work is performed in a dry laboratory environment. Will operate standard office equipment and will frequently stand, walk, sit, perform desk-based computer tasks, use a telephone, perform repetitive motions and occasionally lift objects that weigh up to 20 pounds. May interact with research participants.
The above is intended to describe the general requirements for the position and should not be interpreted as an exhaustive statement of physical requirements. The Institute will provide reasonable accommodation to any employee with a disability who requires an accommodation to perform the essential functions of the position.
Salary is commensurate with experience.
