The successful candidate will conduct experimental research at two potential sites: Sunnybrook Research Institute and the University of Toronto St. George campus. They will also contribute to a broader regional research collaboration focused on emerging and re-emerging viral pathogens through the Prepare, REact, Collect, Innovate, Share and Engage (PRECISE) initiative, Work Package 2. We are seeking a scientist with strong experimental and molecular virology expertise, the ability to work independently, and a demonstrated commitment to collaborative research, mentorship, and scientific rigor.

Please apply by providing a personal statement outlining relevant research experience, scientific motivation, and interest in the position. The statement should describe current career goals and explain how this training opportunity will support professional development and career advancement. Applicants should also highlight key research accomplishments, leadership and mentorship experience, multidisciplinary collaborations, and commitment to research integrity. Along with a personal statement, please also provide an up-to-date curriculum vitae (CV) detailing education, research experience, publications and other relevant accomplishments to Samira Mubareka at samira.mubareka@sunnybrook.ca.
