The Department of Environmental Health Sciences at the Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine (SPHTM) is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join a multidisciplinary team working on a National Academy of Sciences Gulf Research Program-funded project.

The successful candidate will be supervised by Dr. Mostafijur Rahman, Assistant Professor of Environmental Health Sciences. The postdoctoral researcher will actively engage in various scientific activities, including study design, data analysis, manuscript preparation, mentoring graduate and undergraduate students, presenting study findings at conferences, and developing research proposals.
