Who We Are SAGA Innovations (***************************** a national nonprofit that partners with public school districts to provide underserved students with high-dosage in-school-day tutoring, at no cost to students or their families. We are able to provide this service because of the passion and dedication of SAGA Fellows - full-time tutors who devote a year of their lives to closing the academic achievement and opportunity gaps by building lasting relationships and impacting the lives of their students every day. We recruit highly talented recent college graduates, midlife career changers, and recent retirees to commit to a 10-month service year for modest pay. We also provide ongoing support, training, professional development, curriculum, and data management to drive our results. Our Approach SAGA's approach to tutoring is unique because it differs from the traditional tutoring model. Instead, students meet with their SAGA Fellow during a class period as part of their regular daily schedule - in addition to their normal core classes - for the entire school year. Hear more! Our Mission and Core Values SAGA's mission is to transform the lives of the students we serve by motivating them to generate new levels of effort, developing their academic and problem-solving skills, and building their confidence, through personalized instruction and strong relationships among student, tutor, school, and family. At SAGA Innovations, our commitment to our core values drives our work. We are: Relationship-Driven We prioritize, respect, and value relationships with communities, schools, parents, students, and each other. We collaborate within and across teams, respecting and valuing each other's experiences and perspectives. We spread the joy of learning through strong working relationships with each other and our students. Equity, inclusiveness and excellence are the foundations for the relationships that we build. Growth-Minded We seek out, value, and thoughtfully provide feedback in order to improve continually. We demonstrate “roll-with-it-ness” when faced with challenges, keeping our goals and relationships front and center. We celebrate the growth of our students and ourselves. We assume the best of others, while recognizing mistakes as opportunities for growth. Impact-Driven We use quality materials and provide high rigor across our curriculum for our students and training for our staff. We are relentless in our efforts to unlock student potential . We collect, analyze, and reflect on data regularly in order to monitor, learn and improve our effectiveness. We hold ourselves and each other accountable to achieving our individual and team goals. Why We Do This For every 10 low-income students who enter high school, 7 will graduate on time, 4 will enter college, and only 1 will earn a college degree by the age of 24 (The Promise of College Completion, 2011). Finding interventions that improve the academic outcomes of low-income students is one of our nation's most urgent challenges. Very few educational interventions have targeted a key barrier to school success: “mismatch” between what regular classrooms deliver and the needs of students, particularly those far below grade level. The variability in academic achievement increases as students progress through school; by high school, many students in distressed communities can be three or more years behind grade level, especially in math, which research shows is a specific choke point in the pathway to graduation for high school students. Our Results SAGA tutoring has been the subject of multiple large-scale randomized controlled trials conducted by the University of Chicago. Results have shown that SAGA's in-school tutoring model is one of the most effective high school interventions ever studied. SAGA is committed to consistently and systematically testing variations to its model in order to offer the most affordable, implementable, scalable, and effective services to the districts, families, and students we serve. This work builds off of a randomized clinical research study by the University of Chicago, which was published by the National Bureau of Economic Research in 2013 and 2014, in which students gained up to 2.5+ years of math growth in one year of high-dosage math tutoring. This research shows that it is possible to make a difference in the academic trajectory of students in high-need urban communities-it is not too late. Position Summary SAGA Fellows commit 10 months of service to students in Chicago public schools. The Fellowship begins in mid-August and runs through the end of the 2018-2019 school year. Responsibilities Fellows guarantee the academic success of students by focusing intently on individualizing instruction and building personal and meaningful relationships with their students for the entire service year. Each Fellow has a personal caseload of up to 14 students they work with every day. SAGA tutorials are embedded into the school day, with Fellows working with two students at a time for 7 periods of the 8-period school day. Fellows contact families frequently about student progress. This communication forges trust, creates relationships, and keeps parents aware of the successes and needs of their children. Every site has a coordinator who is responsible for observing, training, and supporting Fellows through the entire year. Fellows will be observed weekly and must be hungry for feedback. Qualifications Required qualifications, skills, and/or experience: Passion for education reform and hunger for feedback. Strong basic high school math skills. Prior paid or volunteer experience with students is helpful. Prior coaching, tutoring or teaching experience is helpful. Peace Corps and other National Service alumni are encouraged to apply; those who are looking for a meaningful gap-year opportunity or those who are looking for a ramp-up opportunity into education. Benefits SAGA Fellows earn pay for every hour worked. In Chicago, Fellows earn $13.68 per hour and work an approximately 37.5 hour workweek, with an extra half-hour per day allotted for lunch. Those who work a full school year, plus training, will earn approximately $19,500 for the service term. Over 10 months, Fellows receive 7 days of paid time off. Fellows do not work on federal holidays, during school vacations, or on snow days. Health and dental benefits are available to those who need access. In addition, every SAGA Fellow receives intensive on-site professional development and training on effective instructional techniques and student behavior management. There is a genuine opportunity for advancement within the organization after the program ends in June.

Department: MED-Cell&DevelopmentalBiology Salary/Grade: RES/ The Özbudak Lab is looking for a postdoctoral fellow interested in combining multidisciplinary approaches to discover biophysical mechanisms governing spatiotemporal pattern formation during embryonic development. Embryos develop spatiotemporal patterns by encoding and interpreting biological signals in real time. Despite unavoidable fluctuations in gene expression and cell signaling, embryonic development is robust and reproducible. A striking example of robust spatiotemporal patterning is the rhythmic segmentation of somites, which are precursors of the vertebral column. Segmentation of somites is controlled by: 1) oscillatory expression of the vertebrate segmentation clock genes, 2) short-distance Notch signaling, 3) long-distance Fg and Wnt signaling gradients, 4) a network of transcription factors integrating outputs of the segmentation clock and the signaling pathways, and 5) cytoskeletal and biomechanical processes executing physical formation of segment boundaries. Errors in this regulatory cascade result in various birth defects, including congenital scoliosis. We combine single-cell microscopy measurements, time-resolved perturbation experiments, biophysical modeling, and computational simulations to decipher the mechanism underlying robust spatiotemporal pattern formation and cell fate determination. Relevant publications: Nature 2021 589:431-436; Nature 2023 613:153-159. Dev Cell 2024. We are looking for a colleague who is highly motivated and independent.

The Feinberg School of Medicine is located in the center of downtown Chicago. Additional information about the Naghavi lab can be found at ********************************************** Our research focuses on infection by Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1), a retrovirus and causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). In addition to suppressing the immune system, rendering victims susceptible to opportunistic infections, HIV-1 can cross the blood-brain barrier and cause serious damage to the central nervous system, ultimately leading to a broad spectrum of disorders that range from mild impairment to severe HIV-associated dementia. Our research has had a long-term focus on host factors that regulate HIV-1 infection in a variety of cell types, including microglia and primary neurons. In one area of our research, we have identified specialized microtubule regulators and kinesin adaptor proteins that are exploited by HIV-1 to promote intracellular transport and infection. In a second area of research, we discovered that Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) is highly expressed in microglia and limits HIV-1 spread; evasion of this restriction by HIV-1 results in the secretion of neurotoxic amyloids. Modulating how APP and HIV-1 interact may provide therapeutic opportunities that we are currently exploring. Both projects employ a range of molecular biological approaches, as well as live cell imaging of virus movement and microtubule dynamics in microglia cells.
