1. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Tumor Immune Micro-environment (TIME) lab in the Department of Surgery, Division of General Surgery is seeking a full-time post-doctoral scholar to study the immunological features of the cancer stroma in liver metastases of experimental colorectal cancer. The central hypotheses are that the growing metastasis recruits vascular endothelial cells, fibroblasts and immune cells from the host liver, that some of these cells undergo trans-differentiation in the metastatic context, and that immunosuppressive mechanisms native to the liver are thereby active in the metastasis. The anticipated start date is October 1, 2024.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
2. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The UW RAISE is a multidisciplinary institute and a leading center for building, evaluating, and envisioning AI technologies in the area of Responsible AI. At RAISE, we envision a future where AI systems are developed, deployed, and used with a strong alignment with human values. Located at the University of Washington, a world-class research university in the Pacific Northwest, this new Center will lead programs that span research, education, policy, and outreach.

3. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The University of Washington’s School of Environmental and Forest Sciences (SEFS) is seeking a full-time (100% FTE) postdoctoral researcher to work with an interdisciplinary research team to conduct an environmental assessment of wood products and forest management systems using a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) based modeling approach. The position will be an initial 24 month appointment with the possibility of extension.
The Postdoctoral Scholar will be associated with the Center for International Trade in Forest Products (CINTRAFOR) and contribute to a broad base of research projects, including Life Cycle Assessment of wood products (including mass timber building materials), sustainable building materials and buildings, waste recovery, bioenergy, feedstock logistics, and sustainable forest management. The emphasis of the overall project will be on mass timber construction and related climate-smart forestry practices.

4. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The University of Washington’s School of Environmental and Forest Sciences (SEFS) is seeking a full-time (100% FTE) postdoctoral researcher to work with an interdisciplinary team to develop global wood product supply chain models. The position will be an initial 24-month appointment with the possibility of extension. The Postdoctoral Scholar will be associated with the Center for International Trade in Forest Products (CINTRAFOR) within SEFS and contribute to a broad base of research projects, including global wood products supply chains and related econometric modeling. The successful candidate will be involved primarily in a research project that will provide a comprehensive assessment of the global supply chain for mass timber construction projects, considering construction capabilities, manufacturing capacity, and the reliable supply of sustainable raw materials.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
5. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Department of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Washington is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar who will develop and apply a new set of process-oriented diagnostics to identify and understand biases in the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO)-Tropical Cyclone relationship and their role in sub-seasonal precipitation prediction in the coastal and inland regions of the continental United States. We are especially interested in candidates who have experience in analyzing hindcast datasets such as those made available from NOAA’s S2S (Sub-seasonal to Seasonal) project.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
6. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Department of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Washington is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar to study how large-scale transport of upstream properties and terrain-modified cloud and mesoscale processes affect wintertime orographic precipitation during The Snow Sensitivity to Clouds in a Mountain Environment (S2noCliME) Field Campaign in the Park Range of Colorado. Simulations with the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model (or a similar framework) will be used to simulate storms during the field campaign, including higher resolution large eddy simulations with WRF-LES that resolve finer features of the flow around the terrain.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
7. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The project pursues investigations in the immune-modulating roles of circulating MitoEV in sterile inflammation in chronic conditions such as HF and T2D. Specifically, studies are carried out to study the regulation and mechanism of MitoEV release from peripheral immune cells in the setting of chronic inflammation, and the tissue-specific targets of proinflammatory MitoEV. Approaches include live-cell confocal and electron microscopy, flow analysis, mRNA/protein analyses, and genetic modifications by CRISPR-knock using cell-based and animal models. Experience in confocal microscopy and mouse models is highly desirable.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
8. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The research will be co-supervised by Dr. Christopher Anderson and Dr. André Punt. The research conducted in Dr. Anderson’s lab focuses on understanding how the incentives presented by different forms of fishery management affect fleetwide economic and social outcomes, and especially how fisheries can support sustainable livelihoods and communities. The Punt lab is dedicated to the development and testing of methods for assessing the past and current status of fish, invertebrate and marine mammal populations. Members use these assessments as the basis for forecasts that evaluate which methods for managing these populations will best achieve the goals established by society for those populations.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
9. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The fields of autoimmunity and rheumatology have seen important advances in therapeutics that have improved patients’ lives. At the same time, all these advances are based on inhibiting inflammatory molecules that are physiologically important for a healthy immune system. We are interested in the next generation of therapeutics that will be personalized and only target the original disease process. Such treatments can only be created if we reveal the true causes of systemic autoimmune diseases.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
10. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The Punt lab is dedicated to the development and testing of methods for assessing the past and current status of fish, invertebrate and marine mammal populations. We use these assessments as the basis for forecasts that evaluate which methods for managing these populations will best achieve the goals established by society for those populations. We are exploring how to manage marine populations in the face of changing societal goals, climate change, ocean acidification, and the lack of data which is typical of the marine environment.
Application Deadline: Open Until Filled
11. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Postdoctoral fellows will conduct research in alignment with UW CEI’s mission to accelerate the adoption of a scalable and equitable clean energy future that will improve the health and economy of our state, nation, and world (e.g. in areas of science, engineering, education, technology transfer, policy, or related areas).
Postdoctoral fellows conducting scientific research will work at the Washington Clean Energy Testbeds alongside world- class faculty from the University of Washington, and have the opportunity to receive joint mentorship from partners at the National Renewable Energy Lab, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, or an industry user of the Washington Clean Energy Testbeds.
