Occupational Summary The Achanta Lab is seeking a highly motivated Veterinary Research Scientist/Postdoctoral Research Scientist to join our dynamic team. The title will be designated based on the Duke University School of Medicine guidelines and commensurate with the experience of the candidate.

Participate in lab operations, including early‑morning, late‑evening, and occasional weekend work to ensure optimal study conduct and animal welfare. Commute as needed to satellite research facilities (~13 minutes from main lab). Training And Career Development Career planning and scientific development. Writing, grantsmanship, and conference presentation training. Guidance for American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine (ACLAM) or American College of Animal Welfare (ACAW) board certification, including structured support for residency pathways or board‑certification under alternate experience route. Guidance to become board‑certified by American Board of Toxicology. Outreach, communication, and leadership skill development.

Min Degree Requirements: Ph.D. or equivalent doctorate (e.g. Sc.D., M.D., D.V.M.). Other Credential/Experiential Requirements: 10+ years of postdoctoral experience conducting scientific research. Multiple publications and notable significant contributions to scientific research.
