Postdoctoral Researcher: Regeneration & Airway Physiology

University of Pennsylvania; Erie (Erie County); Presencial; USD 70.000 - 100.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

The University of Pennsylvania invites applications for a position in a newly developing lab focused on Physiologic Regeneration. We study how tissue rebuilds functions after injury, using airway epithelium to measure ion transport, mucociliary clearance, and antimicrobial killing.

This role offers the chance to help build a lab and contribute to results that matter for patients. Ideal candidates hold a PhD/MD/MD-PhD (completed or imminent), demonstrate strong scientific reasoning, sterile

Formación

• PhD, MD, or MD/PhD completed or imminent.
• Command of the scientific process and sound experimental reasoning — the one thing we can't teach quickly.
• Solid sterile technique and core bench skills.
• Willingness to learn and do mouse work (prior experience helpful, not required).
• Willingness to learn and do in vitro and ex vivo work with human tissue (prior experience helpful, not required).
• A familiarity with molecular biology and genetic tools (CRISPR, conditional mice), microbiology (CFU assays), microscopy (confocal, 2P), electrophysiology (Ussing chambers), or large-dataset analysis (scRNA-seq) is helpful but not required.
