9. Postdoctoral Position 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

In the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine (BMM) of the George Washington University, a position for a highly motivated and talented postdoc associate is available in Dr. Shook’s lab. The Shook Lab investigates communication between skin resident cells and immune cells after injury and under pathological contexts. The goal of the applicant is to work on externally funded projects aimed at identifying mechanisms that connect keratinocyte function and responses to efficient injury-induced inflammation and repair.

This will be accomplished through the usage of genetic mouse models, cell lines, human samples, pharmacological techniques, and gene expression profiling, in collaboration with other researchers. Experience with epithelial tissues (in vivo and in vitro), mouse models, and modern scientific technologies is strongly encouraged. In combination with mouse handling and tissue culture techniques, common technologies utilized in the Shook Lab include flow cytometry/FACS, immunofluorescent microscopy, qRT-PCR, RNA sequencing.

Job Description Summary:

GW has everything you need to succeed in discovery. Outstanding research, state-of-the-art facilities and world-class faculty support discovery and innovative solutions. Researchers and faculty across campus advance interdisciplinary and emerging research and scholarship. Our active GW Postdoctoral Association welcomes your engagement in social and professional activities as you join our research teams. Research guides, coding and data management solutions as well as extensive online journals from GW Libraries help to guide your study. The Office of the Vice Provost for Research (OVPR) supports the research infrastructure and facilitates several institutional research initiatives.


The George Washington University and The NSF Institute for Trustworthy AI in Law and Society (TRAILS) aims to transform the practice of AI from one driven primarily by technological innovation to one driven with attention to ethics, human rights, and support for communities whose voices have been marginalized in mainstream AI. TRAILS is a joint research, education, and outreach institute led by the University of Maryland, the George Washington University, Morgan State University, and Cornell University.


TRAILS is seeking talented, highly motivated applicants for multiple postdoctoral fellowship positions to conduct research and scholarship focused on approaches to AI that advance trust and trustworthiness. The George Washington University is located in Washington, DC. These are one- or two-year fellowships, with flexible start dates in 2023. Please see a parallel call for applications at the University of Maryland.


As a TRAILS Postdoctoral Associate, you will have the opportunity to pursue your own research agenda, interact with our Institute’s diverse array of researchers, and contribute to ongoing research projects. These positions offer an opportunity to work closely with faculty and graduate students in TRAILS, a unique interdisciplinary research community that brings together researchers across AI, incorporating insights from algorithm development, systems engineering and architecture, human psychology, sociology, law, science and technology studies, economics, and policy studies.


Faculty and students in TRAILS will collaborate extensively with other labs and centers on campus at the George Washington University, such as the Institute for Data, Democracy & Politics, the co-Design of Trustworthy AI Systems NSF Research Traineeship, the Digital Trade and Data Governance Hub, the Center for Machine Learning, and the Human-Computer Interaction Lab at UMD, and the Center for Equitable AI and Machine Learning Systems at MSU.


We are seeking candidates in any area of research related to developing AI techniques, tools, scientific theories, as well as design and policy recommendations that are intended to promote the trustworthiness of AI systems. TRAILS Postdocs will be mentored by at least two TRAILS faculty members, and applicants whose research interests bridge multiple faculty across different disciplines or institutions will be given preference.


Applicants must have fulfilled their Ph.D. degree requirements, possibly excluding the final submission of their dissertation, prior to joining TRAILS. We encourage candidates with tenure-track academic job offers to apply – with the option of doing a one-year rather than two-year postdoc – provided they are able to defer their start date by at least one year to accept our position.


We encourage applicants with a wide range of backgrounds and life experiences to apply. We are committed to supporting the diversity of TRAILS and to promoting equal opportunity in higher education.


To ensure full consideration, please submit all application materials by July 31, 2023, for full consideration.


1) A curriculum vitae

2) An academic statement of no more than three pages that discusses research interests and goals, as well as your teaching, mentoring, and leadership experiences.

3) Two representative conference or journal articles, book chapters, or equivalent (potentially unpublished) writing samples that you are most proud of, and which best demonstrate your expertise.

4) The names and contact information for two or three references (in nearly all cases, one will be your dissertation advisor/supervisor).


We will request letters of recommendation shortly after the date for best consideration, so you may wish to alert your letter writers in advance so that they will be ready to submit your letters by August 19, 2023.


Responsibilities


Postdocs will design, organize and conduct specialized and advanced experiments using established scientific protocols, troubleshoot and design new protocols, summarize findings and publish results in research journals, under the general supervision of a faculty member. In some cases, postdocs will assume general responsibility for general scientific operations in the lab, and/or provide supervision and guidance to laboratory staff, trainees and other researchers.


As a TRAILS Postdoc, you will define your own research agenda in collaboration with other TRAILS researchers as well as the broader GWU, UMD, and MSU communities. Most postdocs will co-mentor graduate and undergraduate students with their faculty mentors, and there will be teaching opportunities for associate who desire them. Postdocs will be expected to contribute back to the TRAILS community through career-building activities like organizing the TRAILS seminar series, interacting with NSF, and responding to campus leadership. Postdocs who wish to gain experience in grant writing will have opportunities to do so.
