About the role

Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) invites applications for a Post-Doctoral Fellow in the Pathology Department. The fellow will design and synthesize small molecules, evaluate biological activity, and collaborate with chemical biology, pharmacology, and computational chemistry teams. The role emphasizes independent problem solving, data interpretation, and preparation of manuscripts while mentoring junior researchers and contributing to grant applications.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
