4. Postdoctoral Research Associate

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Multimorbidity, or the presence of two or more non-communicable chronic diseases in an individual, may be one of the greatest challenges facing health care. The prevalence of multimorbidity is high, with 30% of Canadians 40 years of age or older having multimorbidity and the burden of multimorbidity increases significantly with age and social vulnerability. Multimorbidity is too often viewed through a biomedical lens; when in truth, many chronic conditions such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes and obesity have strong social determinants. Personalized approaches that consider the complex interaction between clinical and situational factors in multimorbidity hold considerable promise in addressing the challenge of multimorbidity. Shared decision-making (SDM) is a method through which patients and clinicians can work together to develop personalized solutions in the face of medical complexity. While SDM is strongly recommended for patients with medical complexity due to multimorbidity, it is under-utilized and sub-optimally supported, particularly in racialized patients.

10. Postdoctoral Research Fellow Positions

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

We have a position for postdoctoral training in public health, KT and radon gas exposure. The postdoctoral scholar will examine the unintended consequences of COVID-19-related public health measures on Canadians’ exposure to carcinogenic radon gas. This post-doctoral scholar position would be under the co-supervision and mentorship of Dr. Cheryl Peters, Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Oncology and Senior Scientist for Cancer Prevention at the BCCDC/BC Cancer, and Dr. Aaron Goodarzi, Associate Professor in Oncology and Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Both Dr. Peters and Goodarzi are members of the Arnie Charbonneau Cancer Institute, and the scholar would work alongside the study teams leading CAREX Canada and Evict Radon (details below). The hypothesis of our CIHR-funded study is that lung injuries from COVID-19 pneumonia will, as is the case for comparably less damaging typical pneumonia(s), increase lung cancer risk in people who do not smoke and make them more susceptible to the negative effects of radon exposure. As radon exposures are also rising, this produces the highly undesirable scenario of heightened lung cancer susceptibility with greater causative exposure, all as a wider health consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. This situation will disproportionately impact those who are experiencing disability – already a marginalized group – even more.

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Our lab is specialized in bovine bacterial diseases. We are studying Paratuberculosis (Johne’s disease), bovine mastitis, and digital dermatitis. We are looking for a creative, motivated postdoc to conduct independent research by employing RNA-seq, single cell transcriptomics, Tn-seq and bacterial comparative genomics. The postdoc will collaborate with other members of the lab and be part of a vibrant lab with access to all state-of-the-art equipment necessary for the project. Johne’s disease is a chronic intestinal infectious disease causing huge economic impact on the dairy industry. Current control measures are held up by low sensitivity and low specificity of available diagnostic tests and failure of existing vaccines to prevent infection. Available vaccines do not provide enough protection to the host, nor do they prevent the spread of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP), the causative agent. It is known that MAP subverts the host immune system by using macrophages as its primary reservoir. But the mechanisms how MAP vaccines can provide protection against natural infections are not yet fully understood. We are using state-of-the-art methodologies, including RNA-seq transcriptomics, to study the effect of infection with WT and vaccine strains on gene expression related to inflammatory processes and tolerance. We are also interested Single Cell Transcriptomics applied to cells isolated from intestinal tissue to help us characterize the genes involved in JD pathogenesis and protection pathways.

9. Postdoctoral Scholar, Child Health Indicators and Service Delivery, School of Public Policy and Cumming School of Medicine

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Children can experience vulnerabilities and resiliency factors (biologic or environmental) in their developmental trajectory that impact their well-being. Cross-ministry policy and services have an important role in improving health and well-being outcomes; however, the current Alberta child and youth services sector lacks strategy and links between development trajectories, environmental factors and child health and well-being. Indicators can help simplify the complex information concerning the child health and well-being, environment and policy nexus by identifying modifiable factors that impact child health and wellness. These indicators can then be used to turn population data into relevant information for decision-makers and the public. Currently, Alberta does not have indicators of child health and well-being. This position focuses on addressing this gap by developing indicators through a systematic consensus process and identifying evidence-based policies and prevention strategies to improve child health and well-being.

10. Post Doctoral Associate in Linguistics, School of Languages, Linguistics, Literatures and Cultures

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

fDifferent types of nominals, proper names, descriptions, and pronouns, are used to perform different acts of reference – naming, describing and reference tracking. Since acts of reference are dependent on both the speaker’s and the addressee’s relation to the referent, researchers have concluded that reference is a collaborative act. And in fact, there are parts of speech and intonational tunes dedicated to managing this collaborative act. This project explores the universal and language-specific properties of different acts of reference. Our project is informed by three different strands of research in linguistics and philosophy of language. First, beginning with Austin’s 1962 seminal work, speech act theory has established that when we utter different types of sentences, we perform different speech acts, including asserting, questioning, requesting, promising, etc. Second, since the 1970s syntacticians have explored different ways to incorporate speech act meaning into their formal representations of sentence structure.
