<p class="MsoNormal">Good Morning Dr. Dumont:<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here at the University of Michigan Medical School we are in the midst of our recruitment season for a Postdoctoral Multidisciplinary Training Program in Basic Diabetes Research. This NIH/NIDDK funded program provides an opportunity for
postdoctoral fellows to pursue training in diverse aspects of diabetes research. Recently, our PIs were granted another five-year cycle of funding and an additional trainee position was added to our program by the NIH.<span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This program provides an opportunity for postdoctoral fellows, with a PhD, to pursue training in diverse aspects of diabetes research. Training grant preceptors fall into major interest groups across the spectrum of type 1 and 2 diabetes
research - islet biology, autoimmune diabetes, adipocyte biology, neuronal regulation of metabolism, mechanisms of insulin resistance, metabolic control in liver and muscle, and diabetes complications - each area containing investigators pursuing basic research
with potential translational applicability. Laboratory training is supplemented by a core curriculum in molecular pathogenesis of diabetes, a series of educational seminars and classes (including ethics), and workshops on grant writing, career skills, and
research methodologies.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our Office of Health Equity and Inclusion has been instrumental in supporting the growth of the program. Eligible candidates may have<span class="m_-8068687674190161854apple-converted-space"> </span><b><u>access to travel funds to interview</u></b><span class="m_-8068687674190161854apple-converted-space"> </span>with
the mentor/lab, and visit the university and Ann Arbor. Please inquire before making plans. We are committed to developing and maintaining diversity in the ethnic, cultural, and gender backgrounds of our trainees.<u></u><u></u></p>
