Dr, Kamkar Medical Physiotherapy Center jobs

The Mubadala Arabian Center for Climate and Environmental Sciences (ACCESS) at New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) invites applications for an Associate Research Scientist to lead innovative research investigating coral–microbe interactions and the mechanisms that underpin coral resilience to environmental stress in the Arabian Gulf and other extreme reef environments.

An Associate Research Scientist typically holds a PhD or equivalent terminal degree with at least 3 years of relevant experience in their field (not including the years obtaining the PhD or equivalent terminal degree). The successful candidate will join a multidisciplinary team of marine ecologists, microbiologists, oceanographers, climate scientists, and conservation practitioners working to advance scientific understanding of coral reef resilience and support evidence-based conservation and restoration efforts across the region. Terms of employment include a highly competitive salary and benefits package.

Research within ACCESS focuses on addressing some of the most pressing environmental challenges facing the UAE and the wider region, including climate change impacts on marine ecosystems, coral reef conservation, biodiversity monitoring, environmental forecasting, and ecosystem restoration. The Center maintains extensive coral reef monitoring programs, experimental aquarium facilities, environmental observation networks, and strong partnerships with government agencies and international collaborators. The successful candidate will contribute to a rapidly growing research program focused on coral microbiomes, microbial symbioses, host-microbe interactions, and the biological mechanisms that enable corals to survive under extreme environmental conditions.

The position will also involve conducting fieldwork throughout the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman, coordinating with governmental and external partners, mentoring undergraduate students, research assistants, and junior staff, and contributing to the broader scientific mission and visibility of ACCESS and NYU Abu Dhabi.

The ideal candidate will have a strong publication record, experience designing and leading independent research projects, and the ability to work effectively within multidisciplinary research teams. Experience working in coral reef ecosystems, particularly in extreme reef environments such as the Arabian Gulf, is highly desirable. Additional experience in multi-omics approaches, laboratory management, student mentorship, and collaborations with governmental or conservation organizations will be considered an advantage.

Applications will be accepted immediately. To be considered, all applicants must submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, transcript of degree/ copy of highest degree, research statement, and at least 2 contact references, all in PDF format.

Applications will be accepted immediately and candidates will be considered until the position is filled. If you have any questions, please reach out to Kelly Bradham, email: kelly.bradham@nyu.edu
