Postdoctoral fellow positions (new graduates or experienced):
We are seeking enthusiastic candidates at different levels who are interested in developing novel diagnostic and therapeutic methods to treat cancer, cardiovascular disease and other human diseases using nanotechnology. The successful candidate must have expertise and experience in the specified areas and be willing to work as a team member in a multi-disciplinary and fast-paced environment. Please send resume to freddie.fegans@uth.tmc.edu.

Postdoctoral Fellow 1: Expert in Hemorrhagic Conditions
We are seeking a highly motivated scientist to join an intensely collaborative team of basic and translational research scientists interested in application of nanotechnology to fields related to blood coagulation research, encompassing vascular biology, hemostasis, hemorrhagic and thrombotic conditions across a broad spectrum of vascular disorders and in the development of strategies, methods, or nanotechnology based treatments. Specific areas of interest include blood coagulation reaction mechanisms, biochemical/biophysical/x-ray structural characterizations of protein-protein, and protein-membrane interactions, dynamics and proteomics of the blood coagulation/fibrinolytic systems, platelet/megakaryocyte biology. Experience in the fields of platelets structure function, biosynthesis of cellular components and cellular metabolism, and mechanisms of enzyme action, regulation, activation and inhibition as well as of animal models of thrombotic and hemorrhagic conditions is desirable.
Successful applicants will work in a well-funded lab that is located at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. The lab focuses on clinical applications of nanotechnology and translational research. Motivated applicants with a PhD in cellular and molecular biology, biomedical engineering, or a related field are encouraged to apply. The ideal applicant will be able to work independently, supervise others in the lab, and be highly skilled in lab techniques. Please send resume to tong.sun@uth.tmc.edu

Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Diagnostic Imaging, The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center
The Alliance for Nanohealth at Houston invites applications for postdoctoral fellows in nanotechnology and imaging sciences.  Specific research topic includes development of multi-stage nanostructures for cancer diagnosis and therapy, and nanodevices for imaging treatment responses. Candidates should posses a PhD degree in material science or biomedical engineering. Experiences in the synthesis and characterization of nanomaterials are required. A combination of skills in molecular imaging and relevant analytical methods (e.g. HPLC, NMR, MS, TEM) will be a plus. Send resume and names of 3 references to: Dr. Chun Li, Department of Experimental Diagnostic Imaging, Box 59, U. T. M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, 1515 Holcombe Blvd., Houston, Texas, 77030; e-mail: cli@mdanderson.org. The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center is an equal opportunity employer. Smoke-free and drug-free environment.
