DescriptionA post-doctoral Fellow position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Vidya Chidambaran. The laboratory studies the genetics, epigenetics, physiology and psychology of chronic post-surgical pain and their role in opioid efficacy, using PK/PD models of opioid concentration-exposure after surgery. We have identified variants and epigenetic mechanisms associated with post-surgical pain and opioid induced respiratory depression and analgesia. To further evaluate underlying mechanisms and disparities, the lab is seeking a research fellow who has background/expertise in one or more of these areas - brain imaging, bioinformatics, PK/PD modelin
