SOM-BioMedical Science - RC5130 Job Description The Li Laboratory in the Department of Biomedical Sciences at the Marshall University Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine is seeking a highly motivated, organized, and detail-oriented Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join an NIH-funded research program investigating the molecular mechanisms by which Na?/K?-ATPase (sodium pump) signaling and sex hormones regulate thrombosis, vascular inflammation, and cardiovascular disease. The successful candidate will work in a collaborative and multidisciplinary research environment focused on cardiovascular biology, vascular inflammation, and thrombotic disease. This is a full-time, benefits-eligible, at-will position. The successful candidate will complete a three-month probationary period before transitioning to an annual appointment, contingent upon satisfactory performance and continued funding. The ability to work independently while contributing effectively within a collaborative research team.
