Position Qualification
| Position Summary | Postdoctoral Opportunity in Hydrogel Synthesis and Biomedical Application A postdoctoral research associate position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Bin Duan’s lab in the Regenerative Medicine Program at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC). The research goal of Dr. Duan’s lab is to create multi-scale complexity within engineered tissues to understand the fundamentals of cell-material interactions and mimic the native tissues for biomedical applications with a specific emphasis on tissue disease, tissue regeneration and stem cell bioengineering. We focus on (i) developing novel biomaterials and biofabrication techniques (e.g., 3D bioprinting); (ii) generating engineered tissue constructs with tailored micro- and macroscopic structures for specific tissue regeneration (musculoskeletal, peripheral nerve, and spinal cord) and (iii) developing 3D tissue constructs/organoids to investigate the pathogenesis of diseased tissue and examining potential therapeutic remedies. We are looking for individuals who are interested in cutting edge technologies, multidisciplinary collaboration and translational research. Candidates with a strong background in polymer chemistry, hydrogel design and synthesis, and cell and tissue culture are highly desired. Candidates should also demonstrate good communication skills and be enthusiasm and responsible. Candidates will have extensive opportunities to collaborate with material scientists, biologists/pathologists, and surgeons. The position will be funded based on salary level at UNMC. Interested candidates should upload with their application; a C.V., a cover letter describing research experience and interests, and contact information for three references. |
