6 days ago
Job Summary
The University of British Columbia is seeking a highly skilled Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join our team in the Department of Neurology. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Professor Haakon Nygaard and will be responsible for developing and implementing research studies related to the cellular processes associated with Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia.
The position involves maintaining and advancing a robust protocol for 3D bioprinting of iPSC-derived neurons, astrocytes, and microglia to study the pathophysiology of AD and FTD in a 3D environment. The candidate will have a strong teaching role for graduate, undergraduate, and co-op students.
The successful candidate will have a strong research background in neuroscience and neuroscience techniques, including iPSCs generation, differentiation, and maintenance, tissue culture, and confocal imaging. A PhD in the field of neuroscience or a related field, and at least 2 years of postdoctoral training in hiPSC 3D extrusion-based bioprinting are required.
Responsibilities
- 3D bioprinting of iPSC-derived tissues
- Design and implement research studies and related programs, including planning, managing, producing, and analyzing data
- Communicate with wet lab scientists in the day-to-day activities, including data collection, quality control, data cleaning, data analysis, and presentation
- Extensive use of induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cell types in experiments
- Histology, biochemical analysis, -omics, and electrophysiology experiments of iPSC-derived tissues
- Prepare manuscripts and oversee submission
- Lead grant applications in the field of neurosciences
- Maintain safe and clean lab spaces used
- Mentor and teach graduate, undergraduate, and co-op students
Requirements
A PhD in the field of neuroscience or a related field, and at least 2 years of postdoctoral training in hiPSC 3D extrusion-based bioprinting are required. Proven skills using hiPSCs studying the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative or other CNS disorders are also necessary.
Benefits
The University of British Columbia offers a comprehensive benefits package, including health, dental, and vision coverage, as well as a pension plan and paid time off.
