The U.S. Army Institute of Surgical Research is offering postdoctoral fellowships at JBSA Fort Sam Houston.

As an ORISE participant, you will join the Combat Wound Repair Group at the U.S. Army Institute of Surgical Research (USAISR) to conduct research on burn injury, extremity trauma, and sepsis. Projects involve (a) development of novel strategies to reconstruct and regenerate damaged skin and lost tissue after burn and trauma; (b) prevention and control of wound infections; and (c) evaluation of the state-of-the-art sensor-driven bandage, device, and patches to promote regenerative healing of burn and extremity wounds. These projects will involve small and large animal surgery as well as in vitro work on conducting various biological assays and microscopy.
