The postdoctoral researcher will have flexibility to define their own research agenda, but a successful candidate will be broadly interested in contributing to projects investigating gene-environment interactions, chemical susceptibility, and effects of exposure on evolutionary processes with a focus on emerging contaminants such as PFAS. Research integrates Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) as a model system with approaches including:

• Quantitative genetics (GWAS/QTL mapping)
• High-throughput phenotyping
• RNA-seq and multi-omics integration
• Functional genomics (e.g., RNAi, transgenics)

The postdoctoral scholar will have opportunities to lead independent projects, mentor undergraduate researchers, and contribute to grant writing and publications.

Location: Bloomington, Indiana

To apply, please submit a CV, letter of application describing research interests and fit for the position, and contact information for three references to https://indiana.peopleadmin.com/postings/33710.

Review of applications will begin immediately. Applications received by August 3, 2026, will be given full consideration; however, the search will continue until the position is filled.

Expected Start Date: October 1, 2026. Some flexibility may be available based on the selected candidate's availability and institutional hiring timelines.
