Postdoctoral Positions in ‘Stem Cells, Regenerative Biology and Medicine’

About this position

Positions are available for outstanding and motivated individuals with Ph.D or M.D. degrees wishing to identify principles of tissue repair and regeneration, and develop a knowledge basis for therapeutic strategies in clinical use. The candidate will explore tissue repair and regeneration at multiple levels, from the level of whole organisms to the level of single cells. We employ state-of-the-art mouse genetics, multicolor ‘Rainbow’ and Tetrachimera mouse models, surgery models in rodents, flow cytometry, single cell omics, cell & molecular biology approaches to pursue diverse questions on how tissues/organs regenerate from single stem cells, and what underlies the clinical basis of maladaptive wound repair such as chronic wounds, and organ fibrosis.

Our mission is to leverage our basic findings for enhanced repair and regeneration. Our work therefore carries both basic, clinical & evolutionary implications, and has been published in Nature, Science, Nature Cell Biology, Nature Immunology, and Science Translational Medicine journals (to name a few).

The Chinese Institutes for Medical Research, Beijing (CIMR, Beijing) is a new research organization dedicated to advancing basic and translational medical research. Our goal is to tackle fundamental problems in human health with cutting-edge technologies and through interdisciplinary collaborations with world-class scientists and physicians in Beijing. CIMR will provide education and training opportunities for future postdoctoral fellows.

We are committed to a science-centered framework to promote innovation in research and education through a variety of novel funding mechanisms. For more information, please visit our website: www.cimrbj.ac.cn
