Postdoctoral Researcher – Immunology / Oral Biology Location: University of Pennsylvania - School of Dental Medicine Open Date: Jul 23, 2026 Deadline: The Ko Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to join an NIH-funded research program investigating host-microbe interactions at the oral epithelial barrier. Our research uses periodontitis as a model to understand how excess iron resulting from chronic inflammation alters epithelial and stromal cell function, promotes inflammatory cell death, and drives tissue destruction. We integrate genetically engineered mouse models, clinically derived human tissues, immunology, spatial and single-cell molecular profiling, and computational biology to uncover mechanisms linking iron-dependent cell death with chronic inflammatory disease. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work in a collaborative, multidisciplinary...

Postdoctoral Position in Skeletal Regeneration, Diabetes, and Spatial Biology Location: University of Pennsylvania - Penn Dental Open Date: Jul 21, 2026 Deadline: A postdoctoral position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Dana Graves at the University of Pennsylvania's School of Dental Medicine, Department of Periodontics, to investigate a newly identified mechanism through which diabetes impairs fracture healing and to develop a locally delivered therapeutic strategy to restore skeletal repair. The project is supported by strong preliminary evidence demonstrating that lineage-specific deletion of FOXO1 in chondrocytes or osteoblasts reverses diabetes-impaired fracture healing. We have also found that disruption of primary cilia in these skeletal lineages reproduces defining features of defective repair in diabetes. Together, these findings identify and strongly support a previously unrecognized FOXO1-primary cilia signaling axis as an important regulator of...

Postdoctoral Position in Physiology and Regeneration Location: University of Pennsylvania - Perelman School of Medicine Open Date: Aug 01, 2026 Deadline: The problem we work on: We study Physiologic Regeneration: whether a tissue that rebuilds the right cells actually recovers the job those cells are supposed to do. After injury, an epithelium can regenerate the correct cell types and still fail to restore coordinated function. Most of the field checks whether the cells come back. We measure whether the function comes back, and we work on why the two so often diverge. We use the airway surface epithelium because it is constantly injured by the outside world, has to recover to keep the host alive, and crucially, has functions we can measure directly : ion and fluid transport, mucociliary clearance, and antimicrobial killing. Projects pair stem-cell biology with quantitative surface physiology to define how, and whether, function is restored after injury. Who...
