01/20/2026 | Kyle Concannon, MD Assistant Professor | Postdoctoral Fellowship in Translational Oncology Research in the Concannon Laboratory, focus on the development and validation of CAR T cell–based therapies designed to eradicate minimal residual disease and treatment-resistant lung cancer. | The overarching goal of this fellowship is to prepare outstanding trainees for independent research careers in translational immuno-oncology, with a focus on developing next-generation cellular therapies for lung cancer. The fellowship consists of two integrated components: scholarly research (85%) and education/training (15%). The research component will focus on the development and validation of CAR T cell–based therapies designed to eradicate minimal residual disease and treatment-resistant lung cancer. The postdoctoral fellow will play a central role in experimental design, execution, data analysis, and interpretation, and will present findings regularly in one-on-one meetings, laboratory meetings, and multidisciplinary research forums. The remaining 15% of effort will be dedicated to grant writing, mentoring, didactic education, and structured professional development, with the explicit goal of supporting the fellow’s transition to independence. | ||

11/04/2025 | Edward Lau | Our research studies protein homeostasis and dynamics using proteomics and bioinformatics methods. Current projects include spatial proteomics of organelle-specific proteostatic response, and deep learning predictions of protein levels from RNA-seq. | A fully funded Postdoctoral Fellow position is available in the lab of Dr. Edward Lau at the University of Colorado School of Medicine (external link ). Our research uses genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics approaches to study protein synthesis, degradation, and localization, and how these dynamic parameters alter in aging and diseases. We are looking for a postdoctoral fellow who is experienced in quantitative life science research. The ideal candidate should have experience performing original research in one or more areas related to gene expression regulation, mass spectrometry-based proteomics, protein degradation, or human induced pluripotent stem cell models. We are seeking applicants who are passionate about performing research in an academic setting, show excellent organizational skills, able to work both independently and in a team setting, dedicated to maintaining a healthy and respectful workplace. | edward.lau@cuanschutz.edu | |

10/09/2025 | Christine Vohwinkel, MD,PhD | Our lab focuses on acute lung injury (ALI). Inflammation is a central pathomechanism of ALI. We are investigating how metabolites shape the inflammatory properties of alveolar macrophages, which are key players in ALI. | The fellow will plan, perform, analyze, and oversee bench research. Teaching activity will generally involve laboratory staff, students, or faculty collaborators. The fellow is expected to take a leadership role in planning scientific activities; keep abreast of and share with the laboratory pertinent scientific literature; participate in lab meetings and conferences; and write both grants and scientific publications. The fellow will be afforded both time and resources to promote collaborative studies and develop new techniques. Desired or preferred experience in one of several of the following: mouse models of human disease, experience and familiarity with immunology (preferably macrophage biology), histone biology, metabolism, experience in analyzing “omics” data sets, for example, metabolomics or RNAseq | christine.vohwinkel@cuanschutz.edu |
