Synthetic Biology Postdoctoral Fellowships

The U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL) Biotechnology Branch has multiple postdoctoral opportunities available in synthetic biology. Candidates with synthetic biology experience are strongly encouraged to apply, and experience in non-chassis organisms highly desired. Projects will address a broad range of advances in non-medical materials discovery through living-living hybrid systems for national security and defense applications. The Army Research Laboratory Research Associateship Program (ARL-RAP) is designed to significantly increase the involvement of creative and highly trained scientists and engineers from academia and industry in scientific and technical areas of interest and relevance to the Army. Scientists and Engineers at the DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory help shape and execute the Army's program for meeting the challenge of developing technologies that will support Army forces in meeting future operational needs by pursuing scientific research and technological developments in diverse fields. The Sensors and Electron Devices Directorate (SEDD) is responsible for advances in laser sources, RF sources, IR sensors, signature detection and decoding, target imaging and its interpretation, fusion of data derived from several sensors, and electromagnetic protection.
