The Levi Laboratory at UT Southwestern Medical Center is seeking a highly motivated surgery resident or recent graduate with a strong interest in cancer biology, burn injury, trauma, or tissue regeneration to join our dynamic, interdisciplinary research team.

The Levi Lab studies mechanisms of tissue injury and repair, with particular emphasis on wound healing, regeneration, and the biological response to trauma and burns. Our research integrates cutting-edge molecular and cellular biology, bioengineering, and translational approaches to develop innovative therapies that improve outcomes for patients with severe injury or tissue loss. We offer experiences with both clinical and preclinical models.

Research Areas Include:

Molecular and cellular mechanisms of wound healing and regeneration
Burn and trauma immunology, inflammation, and treatments
Cancer biology and tissue repair crosstalk
Stem cell and biomaterials-based tissue regeneration

Position Details:

Full-time, funded postdoctoral research position
Mentorship from Dr. Levi and access to a vibrant research community within UT Southwestern Department of Surgery and Biomedical Research Core Facilities
Opportunities for high-impact publications, presentations at national meetings, and preparation for an NIH career development pathway
Opportunities to apply for independent funding
Start date: Flexible. Applications reviewed on a rolling basis

How to Apply:
Interested candidates should submit the following materials as a single PDF to Dr. Levi at Benjamin.Levi@UTSouthwestern.edu

Cover letter describing research interests and career goals
Curriculum vitae detailing past research experience and publications
