Job summary

Chan Zuckerberg Biohub New York seeks a Postdoctoral Fellow/Scientist I to drive development and application of spatiotemporal omics technologies. You will measure immune cell states in situ, integrate imaging with sequencing, and analyze multi‑omics data to reveal cellular dynamics and regulatory mechanisms.

The role offers collaboration across genomics, immunology, and machine learning, with an emphasis on technology development and discovery in a highly interdisciplinary setting.

Qualifications

• PhD in Genomics, Molecular Biology, Bioengineering, Systems Biology, or a closely related discipline.
• 2-4 years of experience post PhD (Scientist I) in single‑cell technologies, including imaging‑based and/or sequencing‑based omics.
• Strong track record of developing novel experimental technologies.
• Experience with molecular biology techniques, including cell culture, nucleic acid workflows, and cellular functional assays.
• Ability to independently design rigorous experiments, troubleshoot complex workflows, and drive projects to completion.
• Collaborative mindset and strong scientific communication skills.
• Experience developing novel imaging‑based technologies.
• Research background in immunology or immune engineering.
• Experience with advanced microscopy, instrumentation, or imaging‑based transcriptomics/genomics.
• Experience with synthetic biology, protein design, or engineered cell systems.

Responsibilities

• Develop next‑generation imaging‑based technologies to measure molecular organization and cell state dynamics.
• Apply these technologies to profile immune cell states, disease states, and their spatial context.
• Analyze high‑dimensional imaging and sequencing datasets using computational approaches to identify organizational and regulatory principles.
• Collaborate closely with researchers across genomics, synthetic biology, immunology, machine learning, and related disciplines.
• Contribute to preprints, publications, presentations, and open science practices.
