The goal of this position is to investigate mitochondrial function from freshly explanted human heart tissue. One of the goals of our research program is to investigate how the human heart responds to different drugs that affect the mitochondria. The heart needs a lot of energy to sustain contractility. Mitochondria are the organelles responsible for energy generation. In heart failure, mitochondrial function is decreased. We have the ability to measure mitochondrial function in freshly explanted human hearts in response to different drugs. Our goal is to identify novel therapies for heart failure. In addition, the position involves molecular and cellular experiments and data analysis. The ideal candidate will be someone interested in understanding biological processes in heart disease, learning new methodologies and in performing careful data analysis. Employees in this position often obtain the training needed to pursue post-graduate education.

– this role is expected to work onsite and is located in Aurora, CO.
