Job Summary
Position Summary
The Eshelman Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellowship in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy supports the training of highly motivated and ambitious scholars who have a strong desire to become leaders in healthcare and change the healthcare landscape with groundbreaking research and innovations. This is an extraordinary opportunity to engage in cutting-edge research at the #1 School of Pharmacy in the US and acquire the knowledge research experience and professional skills needed for a successful career in academia industry or government. The close proximity of UNC to the Research Triangle Park which hosts numerous pharmaceutical biotech and healthcare companies and to Duke University North Carolina State University and North Carolina Central University provides trainees with abundant opportunities for research collaborations. Postdoctoral scholars will have access to numerous resources such as grant writing and grantsmanship career and professional development state-of-the-art core facilities work/life balance and wellness. A detailed description of the fellowship can be found at An outline of the research focus of faculty accepting trainees through this fellowship is listed below. Details of their research programs can be accessed using the link above. Jiawei Zhou Ph.D. The candidate will be co-mentored by Dr. Yanguang (Carter) Cao and Dr. Jiawei Zhou to advance the development of artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) models that reduce reliance on animal testing and enable the quantitative evaluation of safety and efficacy for antibody and mRNA- LNP therapeutics. Eugene Muratov Ph.D. The Muratov lab focuses on developing and applying the broad range of in silico tools for computational toxicology antiviral research discovery of drug combinations and creation of novel approach methodologies. Kim Brouwer Pharm.D. Ph.D. Research in the Brouwer laboratory is focused on elucidating mechanisms of hepatic transport and further developing strategies to assess and predict the impact of altered hepatic transporter function on drug disposition to improve therapeutic outcomes. Yevgeny Brudno Ph.D. The Brudno lab harnesses biomaterials to manufacture and deliver cellular immunotherapies to improve patient outcome and quality of life. Kevin Frankowski Ph.D. The Frankowski lab focuses on medicinal and synthetic organic chemistry for hit-to-lead optimization of small molecule therapeutics and chemical probes. The group leverages their chemical synthesis expertise to solve emerging challenges facing modern medicine in collaboration with disease and pharmacology partners. Juliane Nguyen Ph.D. The Nguyen lab is dedicated to translating cutting-edge research into life-changing therapies for patients suffering from cancer myocardial infarction colitis and other diseases. Our interdisciplinary team of experts combines the power of molecular engineering pharmaceutical sciences and bioinformatics to develop genetically and molecularly engineered biotherapeutics that are safe effective and tailored to the individual needs of each patient.
Required Qualifications Competencies And Experience
Interested applicants should be completing their terminal doctoral degree within six months and early postdoctoral scholars should hold a terminal doctoral degree for three years or less at the time of application.
