Per the National Science Foundation: Participating postdoctoral associates supported with NSF funds in RTG must be citizens, nationals, or permanent residents of the United States or its territories and possessions. An NSF-funded Research and Training Group (RTG) in Computation- And Data-Enabled Science (CADES) at Portland State University (PSU) will produce unique workforce additions possessing deep knowledge in specific areas of computational mathematics and statistics, as well as a broad understanding of current issues in data-driven science. The CADES group effort is divided into three areas: (Area I) numerical techniques for partial differential operators, (Area II) data-intensive statistical learning, and (Area III) optimization methods for data science. In addition to foundational issues in computational mathematics, examples of applied research directions include light propagation through optical devices, forecasting of weather, air quality, and drought, understanding progression of diseases like cancer and dementia, and multifacility location problems for warehouse and wireless services. All projects involve high performance computing and open-source scientific software products. Currently, we are seeking postdoctoral candidates interested in working in our team RTG environment. Candidates whose doctoral research experience intersects with at least one of Areas I, II, III, and who are desirous of acquiring skills in the remaining areas, are sought. NSF requires all RTG postdocs to be US citizens, nationals, or permanent residents.

Our team is actively working towards the development of novel fluorophore technology to highlight both tissues to be resected (e.g., cancer) and tissues to be preserved (e.g., nerves) to improve surgical outcomes for patients using clinically translated fluorescence guided surgery technologies. We are looking for skilled, motivated synthetic chemists to join our multidisciplinary team to contribute to this highly translational project. Applicants must have a background in synthetic, organic chemistry. Applicants should submit a cover letter explaining their interests, a CV, and a list of references. The Gibbs laboratory is well support by the NIH and engages in a range of studies to develop novel fluorescence imaging to improve medicine. Portland is very bike friendly, scenic, and has a vibrant culture around music, coffee, beer, and food. The Pacific Ocean, Cascade mountains, and the Columbia gorge are all less than 90 minutes away. Function/Duties of Position Synthetic design and development of novel fluorophores to specifically highlight tissues in the body for fluorescence guided surgery. Attendance and presentation at lab meetings, contributions to publications as requested (writing, figures, data), contributions to applications for funding as requested (writing, figures, data). Presentations of successful research at one or more national or international meetings per year, as requested. Supervision of graduate or other students as requested. Required Qualifications PhD in chemistry Synthetic, organic chemistry Must have strong synthetic chemistry knowledge and design novel synthetic schemes. Must have excellent communication skills and work as part of a research team. Preferred Qualifications Experience with small molecule synthesis, particularly fluorophores. All are welcome Oregon Health & Science University values a diverse and culturally competent workforce. We are proud of our commitment to being an equal opportunity, affirmative action organization that does not discriminate against applicants on the basis of any protected class status, including disability status and protected veteran status. Individuals with diverse backgrounds and those who promote diversity and a culture of inclusion are encouraged to apply.
