Microbiome.Postdoctoral.Fellowship.Binghamton Univ. Salary and details:$76,000 (two years, with a pipeline to a Tenure-track position). This position is open until filled, but apply by April 12thfor full consideration. The Department of Biological Sciences at Binghamton University (SUNY) seeks applicants for an independent Postdoctoral Fellowship (open for two years). The fellowship is open to anyone studying microbiomes in a wide range of plant or animal systems, focusing on how variation in microbiota impacts the way organisms interact with their environment. The postdoc will ideally work with a collaborative team of mentors that will host the fellows in their laboratories and help guide them to remain here in a tenure-track faculty position at the conclusion of the fellowship. Applicants should, therefore, have research interests that complement existing faculty in our department. The mentorship team will be built from faculty with research most relevant to the applicant's interests. Fellows are appointed with the Postdoctoral Associate title and will receive a highly competitive compensation package, including New York State comprehensive benefits. There will also be an annual allowance to cover research expenses, conference travel, and dissemination of research findings. The Fellowship is part of the SUNY PRODiG+ initiative that focuses on two goals: (1) increasing the number and share of excellent diverse faculty committed to advancing the ideals of diversity, equity, and inclusion; and (2) strengthening the pipeline for retention and support of these faculty. Eligible candidates must demonstrate personal, academic, or work experience engaging diversity, equity, and inclusion or a commitment to facilitating and enhancing diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in the campus community. Such experience may include, but is not limited to, an academic/scholarly track record focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion; work, volunteer/unpaid/community service; or related experience/expertise in serving underserved or vulnerable areas and/or populations. Also, candidates must be eligible to work in the United States without a visa sponsorship, and have a Ph.D. in Biology or related discipline from an accredited institution completed prior to the start date.
