Research Scientist, Biomedical Engineer
Job Title: Postdoctoral Fellow – Tissue Engineering/Biomedical Engineering
Job Number: 126773
Location: Tucson, US
Job DescriptionOur Laboratory engineers advanced microphysiological platforms, 3D-bioprinted constructs, and regenerative scaffolds that bridge the gap between cell biology and clinical translation, and is fully funded, collaborative, and actively publishing.
You’ll develop in vitro and in vivo models focused on neural repair, tissue regeneration, and disease modeling, with a strong emphasis on conductive biomaterials and microphysiological systems. Active funded projects include a human blood-brain barrier-on-chip platform for stroke modeling (AHA Career Development Award) and a novel neuromodulation strategy for spinal cord injury recovery (NIH Director’s New Innovator Award, DP2). The work spans molecular cellular assays, biomaterial design, organ-on-chip engineering, and translational validation – giving you breadth across biological scales that’s hard to find in a single lab.
We’re looking for someone who wants to build things that matter and grow into an independent scientist.
- Ph.D. in biology, neuroscience, biomedical engineering, chemical engineering, materials science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or a related discipline.
- The selected candidate must have a conferred Ph.D. upon hire.
- Strong scientific track record demonstrating well‑organized design and execution of studies.
- Experience in biomaterials, cell culture, and molecular and cellular assays.
It would be terrific if the candidate has experience in any of the following areas (not required):
- Experience with animal model experience
- Experience with cell biology
- Experience with histology and imaging
- Experience with microfabrication/MEMS
Outstanding U of A benefits include health, dental, vision, and life insurance; paid vacation, sick leave, and holidays; U of A/ASU/NAU tuition reduction for the employee and qualified family members; access to U of A recreation and cultural activities; and more!
