Opportunities in precision nutrition

We are looking for new group members with passion, talent, and grit — whether you come from a nutrition background and want to apply computation and AI to precision health, or from a quantitative background and want to work on questions in nutrition and digestion.

Lab manager / Clinical research coordinator

We are actively recruiting a lab manager and/or clinical research coordinator. You will help launch cohort studies from their earliest stages, including project management, automation, and technology development, and oversee the lab’s financial and daily operations. The role offers ample opportunities to build new skills (e.g., wearables and digital health) and to grow professionally (e.g., conference presentations).

Graduate students

Graduate students interested in the Wu Lab should contact Dr. Wu to discuss projects and rotations. He mentors students in the Nutrition Science department and in PULSE, particularly the Computational and Systems Biology track. Students in other programs are welcome to reach out about potential rotation and mentoring opportunities.

Postdocs

We welcome prospective postdocs completing or holding a Ph.D. and/or M.D. (or equivalent) in nutrition science, genetics, endocrinology, bioinformatics, or a related field, as well as candidates with quantitative training who work on — or want to move into — nutrition and biology. To apply, email Dr. Wu a short cover letter describing your motivation and career goals, your CV, and contact information for three references.

Undergraduate / master students

We are always looking for motivated undergraduate and master’s students to join the lab. If interested, send Dr. Wu your CV and a short statement (2–3 paragraphs) explaining why you want to join.

What you will expect

  • A mission-driven team pushing the boundaries of precision nutrition, AI, and computational biology
  • Personalized mentorship designed to accelerate your growth and spark your creativity
  • Preparation for your next step, whether in academia, biotech, or entrepreneurship
