Jobs & Postdocs
Posted Aug 16
The COMMON THEMES IN REPRODUCTIVE DIVERSITY PROGRAM (a multi-disciplinary program within The Indiana University College of Arts + Sciences) has 2 open positions for 2-year NIH traineeships to support broadly integrative training in the areas of sexual reproduction and development. Training will focus on behavior and physiology in humans and other animals and will address key questions in three related themes: (1) genetic, epigenetic, environmental, and parental contributions to reproductive and social behavior; (2) the origins and expression of differences among the sexes; and (3) sex and immunity in health and disease.

Indiana University's excellent support for research and its globally recognized strengths in animal behavior, endocrinology, human sexual health, evolution and development will ensure high quality training. PhD in biology, psychology, neuroscience, anthropology, gender studies, or a related field is required. Funding is from an NIH T32 training grant, "Common Themes in Reproductive Diversity."
 
Applicants should make initial contact with one or more members of the 20+ training faculty (http://www.indiana.edu/~reprodiv/who-we-are/faculty/), who might serve as primary mentors, to develop possible research/training projects. Additional information about applying is available on the CTRD website (http://www.indiana.edu/~reprodiv/how-to-apply/).
 
Review of applications will begin as soon as 1 October 2018.  Positions begin as early as June 2019. Consideration of applications will continue until positions are filled. Applicants from groups underrepresented in science are encouraged.
