Job Description

Postdoctoral Position – Exosomes, Diabetes, and Angiogenesis; Department of Biochemistry, Wake Forest University School of Medicine – Winston-Salem, NC. The Huang Lab invites applications for a highly motivated and ambitious Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join our interdisciplinary team investigating the roles of extracellular vesicles (exosomes) in diabetes, angiogenesis, and retinal vascular diseases—with a focus on diabetic retinopathy. Our lab combines cutting-edge molecular, cellular, and proteomic approaches to understand how exosome-mediated signaling shapes vascular and metabolic dysfunction in diabetes. Supported by long-term NIH funding, we offer a stimulating and collaborative research environment with opportunities for career development, authorship in high-impact publications, and mentorship tailored to each scholar’s long-term goals.

Job Responsibility

  • Engage in innovative projects exploring intercellular communication via exosomes in vascular and retinal pathobiology
  • Work with well-established models of diabetic retinopathy and angiogenesis using advanced molecular and imaging techniques
  • Collaborate with experts in vascular biology, metabolism, and neuroscience across the Wake Forest research community

Requirements

  • A recent Ph.D. (within the past 3 years) in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Neuroscience, or a related discipline
  • Background in exosome biology, metabolism, angiogenesis, vascular biology, diabetes, or retinal research is desirable but not required
  • The ideal candidate will be self-driven, creative, and collaborative, with strong communication skills and a passion for scientific discovery

Nice to have

Background in exosome biology, metabolism, angiogenesis, vascular biology, diabetes, or retinal research
