Description Research position at the level of Postdoctoral Research Scientist is available at the Center for Radiological Research (CRR.columbia.edu) at Columbia University Irving Medical Center in New York to investigate the effect of acute high-dose radiation exposure on the gut microbiome and its impact on gastrointestinal (GI) tract injury. We have developed an orally administered radiomitigator that is specifically targeted to the mucosal surface of the GI tract to potentially alleviate the deleterious effects of radiation in animal models. The major focus of this research study will be to perform longitudinal structural and functional studies to determine the impact of radiation, on GI architectural integrity, commensal gut microbiota composition and diversity, and microbiome-host interactions after drug treatment/irradiation using conventional and human gnotobiotic mouse models, flow cytometry, and ELISA-based assays. Additionally, mechanistic studies will be performed...

Description The Center for Climate Systems Research at Columbia University (https://ccsr.columbia.edu/) invites applicants for a Postdoctoral Research Scientist position in cloud physics, global atmospheric modeling, and satellite observations at its Morningside campus in New York City. Appointment is full-time and made annually and is contingent upon funding and performance.   Of all climate feedbacks on decadal to centennial scales, the most uncertain are those associated with changes in clouds, in both the current and previous Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP) generations. Such diverse behavior limits confidence in projections of future climate. The project’s research goals are to characterize the response of different cloud types to climate variations (cloud feedbacks) using active-sensor CALIPSO-CloudSat observations in conjunction with other A-Train observations, and to develop constraints for climate sensitivity and climate model...

Description The stuttering and vvariability (savvy) lab in Communicative Sciences and Disorders (CSD) at New York University (NYU) (PI: Eric S. Jackson) is looking to hire a Research Scientist for a period of at least one year. The savvy lab focuses on stuttering in adults and children, particularly the variability with which stuttering events occur and the factors that drive this variability (e.g., social-cognitive processing, cognitive control). The Research Scientist will work primarily on two projects, which follow up on our recent work on right hemisphere and cognitive control involvement in stuttered speech: 1) determining cortical substrates of stuttered speech (and anticipated stuttering) in children; and 2) testing the therapeutic effects of neuromodulation (tDCS) on the speech of stutterers.
