    Department Department of Molecular Biomedical Sciences
    About the Department North Carolina State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine (NC State CVM) is a dynamic community whose members are dedicated to preparing veterinarians, veterinarian scientists, and biomedical scientists while advancing animal and human health from the cellular level through entire ecosystems.

The Department of Molecular Biomedical Sciences at the NC State CVM trains veterinarians, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows in research-based careers focused on discovering new information about animal and human health and disease and using those findings to enhance animal and human health and wellbeing. Essential Job Duties The Battle Lab examines digestive diseases through a developmental biology lens. Using cutting-edge molecular and cellular biology tools in the context of animal and organoid model systems, they seek to delineate fundamental mechanisms of gastrointestinal development and disease. The long-term goal is to apply the knowledge gained to gastrointestinal diseases, including short bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, metaplasia such as Barrett’s esophagus, and cancer, to generate new therapeutic drugs and engineered tissues for transplantation. The group has strong connections with gastrointestinal researchers at UNC Chapel Hill and Duke University through the NIH funded Center for Gastrointestinal Biology and Disease (CGIBD). The selected candidate will work under the direct guidance of Dr. Michele Battle. Candidates should be willing to take initiative to help achieve laboratory goals, demonstrate good organizational and time management skills, and be able to work independently as well as cooperatively to achieve lab goals.
