Research Fellowship in Plastic Surgery

Research Fellowship in Plastic Surgery

The Metis Foundation, in conjunction with The Division of Plastic Surgery at UT Health San Antonio, has an immediately available research fellow position through July 2024. There will be an opportunity to extend for a further year, contingent upon funding availability.

This funded post will include opportunities to perform small and large animal studies and surgeries involving nerve regeneration, bone defect/gap reconstruction, VCA transplantation and ex vivo perfusion of tissue composites. Applicants will be expected to have basic surgical skills with microsurgical skills preferred; however, surgical project specific training will be available. In addition, applicants will be involved in study design and statistical analysis. Successful candidates will be expected to present and publish this work.

Additionally, applicants will be expected to participate in journal club, regular team meetings, participate in journal/chapter review article authorship, assisting in writing grant proposals and interact with cross-institutional collaborators. Candidates will be able to join faculty in clinical surgical cases when time allows. This position would be ideally suited for junior surgical residents seeking training positions in plastic surgery. The Metis Foundation is a 501c(3) specifically organized to advance clinically relevant scientific research to the medical community, especially within the US Department of Defense. This post will support the RESTOR Research Military Program.
