The Dage Lab at the Indiana University School of Medicine is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join our innovative research team. Our lab focuses on developing precision medicine approaches for diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, through the discovery of blood-based biomarkers.

This position is funded by the Alzheimer’s Disease and Aging Cohort Consortium (ADACC) U24 grant (Wake Forest PI: Dr. Michelle Mielke, IU mPI: Dr. Nicole Fowler) and will involve cutting-edge research in Alzheimer’s disease and related neurodegenerative disorders.

This consortium will consist of multidisciplinary investigators dedicated to developing evidence-based strategies for the use and implementation of biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) in older patients with multiple chronic conditions and cognitive impairment.

This clinical research-focused position involves working with clinical, imaging, biomarker, and genetics data across multiple studies. Expertise in biostatistics and familiarity with handling multiple data types, both cross-sectionally and longitudinally, are critical for success.
