What is the difference between Trainee Material Science Postdoc vs Research Associate in Material Science?

AspectTrainee Material Science PostdocResearch Associate in Material Science
QualificationsPhD in Material Science or related fieldMaster's or PhD, depending on role
Work EnvironmentAcademic labs, research institutionsIndustry labs, manufacturing companies
Job FocusResearch, experimentation, publishingApplied research, product development
Experience LevelEntry to early careerMid-level, with some industry experience

While both roles involve material science research, Trainee Material Science Postdocs are typically early-career researchers focused on academic research and publishing, often in university settings. Research Associates in Material Science usually work in industry, applying research to product development and manufacturing. The qualifications overlap, but the work environment and focus differ significantly.

We are accepting applications for a postdoctoral research fellowship to join the Family-Focused Supportive Care Research Team in Department of Behavioral Science at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. This postdoctoral fellowship will provide individuals with the opportunity to contribute to the design, implementation, analysis, and publication of studies focusing on behavioral intervention trials in the cancer control setting. Under the mentorship of Dr. Kathrin Milbury, Professor in the Department of Behavioral Science, this fellowship will focus on quantitative and qualitative methods to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of various types of behavioral interventions including physical activity, mindfulness-based and psychosocial interventions targeting outcomes both patients and their family caregivers. Additional emphasis will be placed on comparing different delivery approaches (e.g., individual, dyadic, group-based, mobile-app, telemedicine, hospital-based) as well as adapt existing interventions for cultural sensitivity to reach diverse and underserved populations.
All duties and responsibilities are carried out in compliance with institutional policies, ethical research standards, and applicable federal and state regulations.

Within the context of the mission and objectives of the department of behavioral science, postdoctoral trainees will be exposed to a wide array of translational research in cancer prevention and control including smoking cessation, genetic counseling and testing for hereditary cancer susceptibility, psychosocial oncology, physical activity, neuroscience, psychophysiology, and undeserved and minority populations. Rigorous training in qualitative methods is also available if desired. This postdoctoral fellowship provides and exceptional opportunity to develop research experience and publications in cancer prevention and control including NIH funded randomized controlled trials. With the goal of transition to faculty position, the postdoc will receive hands on training in the following areas: behavioral intervention trials, regulatory procedures, database development, data analysis, manuscript writing, and grant application development.
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
Qualified candidates should have a doctorate in psychology, behavioral science, public health, kinesiology, nursing or a related field. Experience with behavioral intervention research is preferred but not required. Publications and strong statistical skills are important. All candidates must have evidence of strong writing skills.
POSITION INFORMATION
Offsite work arrangements are subject to approval and may be modified or revoked at any time based on business needs, performance considerations, or regulatory requirements.
This position may be responsible for maintaining the security and integrity of critical infrastructure, as defined in Section 113.001(2) of the Texas Business and Commerce Code and therefore may require routine reviews and screening.
