A postdoctoral fellow position is available in the Capone Lab in the Department of Environmental and Occupational Health at the Indiana University School of Public Health-Bloomington. The fellow will join a multidisciplinary team conducting a five-year CDC-funded study focused on developing and applying integrated surveillance approaches for soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infection in the southeastern United States. Dr. Drew Capone’s research group has broad interests in environmental health microbiology. Current projects include public health surveillance using fecal waste streams, microbial fate and transport, the role of infrastructure in interrupting enteric pathogen transmission, and predicting public health outcomes using quantitative microbial risk assessment. Lab members conduct field research in Mozambique and Indiana, as well as wet lab work in Bloomington, Indiana. The group uses tools from engineering, epidemiology, and environmental health microbiology to investigate problems affecting low-income individuals and aims to improve public health in the communities where they live. Applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis. Applications received by October 5, 2026, will be given full consideration, and the search will remain open until a suitable candidate is found. The earliest anticipated start date is October 19, 2026.
