- PhD (or equivalent doctoral degree) in a relevant scientific discipline completed prior to the fellowship start date (PhD conferred in 2026 only).
- Strong background in immunology, aging biology, regenerative biology, developmental biology, stem cell biology, cell biology, or related discipline.
- Ability to conduct mechanistic studies to generate, test, and validate biological hypotheses.
- Demonstrated record of scientific achievement (publications, presentations, patents, or equivalent) and ability to independently drive research projects.
- Strong commitment to learning, innovation, and professional development.
- Hands-on experience in molecular, cellular, and in vivo biology (cell/organoid/ex vivo culture; imaging; phenotypic analysis; genetic perturbation; assay development).
- Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a matrix environment.
- Experience investigating tissue-immune interactions in aging, regeneration, or disease.
- Experience with animal models, tissue harvesting, and downstream tissue profiling.
- Starting salary: $87,000 USD per year.
