The Bailey Lab started in July of 2018 and we are eager to build a fun, inquisitive, and collaborative research group interested in developing AAV-based therapeutics for neurological disorders. We are currently accepting applications for technicians, graduate students, and postdoctoral positions. We welcome those with diverse backgrounds.
Researchers with expertise in cell biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, virology, and animal studies are encouraged to apply.
Postdoctoral Position
We seek a postdoctoral fellow to lead research in gene therapy projects with the eventual goal of translating research to a Phase I clinical trial. The laboratory has several exciting projects related to developing gene therapies for neurological disorders.
Postdoctoral candidates must hold a Ph.D. and/or M.D. degree and have:
- A strong background in biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, or a related discipline
- A record of publication and grant writing
- Scientific curiosity and the desire and ability to work independently
- Experience with disease models and genomic approaches (i.e. RNA-seq) is a plus.
Information on our postdoctoral training program and benefits can be found on UTSW's postdoctoral program webpage and in the downloadable Postdoc Handbook.
To apply, please send Dr. Bailey your CV and a brief description of your scientific interests and research goals.
Graduate Students
Potential graduate students at UT Southwestern apply and are accepted via the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. Once admitted, they typically take the one-semester Core Course and join individual Ph.D. programs during the second semester.
If you are already a graduate student at UT Southwestern and are interested in joining the lab, contact Dr. Bailey.
UT Southwestern Medical Center is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer. Women, minorities, veterans, and individuals with disabilities are encouraged to apply.
